Chief Justice of Pakistan, Qazi Faez Isa, has made the decision to auction off the luxury vehicles provided to the Chief Justice by the federal government.
In a letter addressed to the cabinet secretary and the Punjab chief secretary, the Supreme Court has issued directives to auction the Mercedes-Benz, valued at Rs61 million and purchased in 2020, as well as the bullet-proof Land Cruiser provided by the Punjab government.
The letter explicitly states that Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa refrained from using both luxury vehicles. It emphasizes the inappropriateness of importing luxury vehicles for constitutional positions.
Furthermore, the letter outlines that the proceeds from the auction of these vehicles will be allocated towards enhancing public transport.
