An Islamabad High Court division bench on Thursday suspended an earlier order of the removal of retired Major General Hafeezur Rehman from the post of Pakistan Telecommunication Authority’s (PTA) chairperson.
The bench, comprising Justices Muhammad Asif and Inaam Ameen Minhas, took up an appeal against the ruling issued by Justice Babar Sattar on Tuesday, which had ordered the PTA chief’s removal over his “illegal” appointment to the position on a plea filed by digital rights activist Usama Khilji in 2023.
