Memo case: Pak SC tells Haqqani to appear before it

December 24, 2012 15:04

Pakistan's Supreme Court today issued a fresh notice to former ambassador to the US Husain Haqqani to appear before it on January 28, when it will resume hearing a case related to an alleged memo that purportedly sought US help to stave off a feared military coup.

A nine-judge bench of the apex court headed by Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry will hear the case pertaining to the memo -- allegedly sent by Haqqani to former US military chief Admiral Mike Mullen -- seeking US intervention to avert a possible overthrow of the government in the aftermath of the American raid that killed Osama bin Laden last year.
