It is a part heard case which was adjourned for today. In 
response to our earlier orders, the Secretary Establishment Division 
has appeared in Court. For our perusal he has produced the original 
record 
containing 
summery 
to 
the 
Prime 
Minister 
regarding 
appointment of Muhammad Azeem-ul-Haq Minhas as Executive 
Director/Alternate Executive Director of the World Bank and other 
CMA.5216/2012

relevant correspondence. Original file is returned to him with the 
direction that a complete photostate copies set of this file be provided to 
the office within three days. 
2. 
 
Muhammad Azeem-ul-Haq Minhas, is present in Court. 
His counsel Mr. Afnan Karim Kundi, ASC, has filed a statement in 
writing which reads as under : - 
1. 
I have complete faith in this august Court 
that it is open to conviction and will do 
complete justice in the matter. 
2. 
This august Court was very kind to 
accommodate my request for fixing the 
matter of yesterday to enable me to 
personally appear and assist the Court, for 
which I am grateful. 
3. 
This august Court was also very gracious 
in giving me a patient audience and going 
through my past service record, which 
enabled me to explain that I have been a 
career civil/government servant. 
4. 
Yet like any other case, I am cognizant of 
the fact that this case could have a 
favourable outcome or otherwise for me. 
5. 
Keeping in view my age and future 
prospects (life permitting), I would like to 
avoid any controversy and have thus 
tendered my resignation from the position 
of AED to the Executive Director (EDS-06) at 
World Bank this morning. 
6. 
Also since the said position represents my 
homeland Pakistan and six other friendly 
countries, 
I 
would 
not 
like 
any 
embarrassment caused to Pakistan in any 
manner. 
7. 
I would most humbly request this august 
Court that the Suo Motu Notice in my case 
(CMA .5216/2012) may kindly therefore be 
discharged as having become infructuous.  
  
3. 
 
Alongwith the above statement he has also placed on 
record a copy of his resignation dated 6.6.2013 and a Fax 
transmission confirmation print.

4. 
 
Further hearing of Civil Misc. Application No.5216/2012 is 
adjourned to a date in office after two weeks. Meanwhile, in case, 
Muhammad Azeem-ul-Haq Minhas receives confirmation regarding 
acceptance of his resignation from the World Bank a copy thereof may 
be placed on record.
