Earlier, the Supreme Court had taken a suo motu notice against the ‘perceived interference’ in the institutions and slapped a ban on new appointments and transfers of officials involved in high-profile cases, National Accountability Bureau (NAB) cases as well as those being heard by special courts.
The apex court had also barred the NAB and the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) from withdrawing the high-profile cases from courts.
