LAHORE – Chief Justice of Pakistan, Mian Saqib Nisar censured the head of Pakistan Kidney and Liver Institute and Research Center, Lahore for displaying a portrait of former Chief Minister Punjab, Shehbaz Sharif in the hospital.
During the hearing of a case related to the facility on Saturday, the top judge asked Dr Saeed, the President and CEO of PKLI as to why he had hanged a picture of Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz leader in the building.
“Quaid-e-Azam and Allama Muhammad Iqbal were among the founders of Pakistan but the health facility housed picture of Shehbaz Sharif, which has now been changed,” remarked the judge.
He clarified that there would be a comprehensive forensic audit of the hospital and concerned officials should get ready for that.
