ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Medical Commission (PMC) has been issued a notice by the Islamabad High Court in a case pertaining to revoking of a medical doctor's license.
A petition seeking stay order against the PMC decision was heard by bench led by the newly-appointed Justice Babar Sattar.
During the hearing, the petitioner's counsel informed the court that the doctor's license had been revoked two years ago over a botched operation. He maintained that a medical tribunal had been formed to look into the matter but the inquiry remained inactive.
Justice Sattar remarked that the court could not issue a stay order without hearing the PMC's side of the story. He issued a notice to the commission and sought a reply by January 14.
The hearing has been adjourned.
