During the hearing of the cases at the Supreme Court, on Tuesday the Chief Justice of Pakistan, Justice Saqib Nisar remarked that he is fully aware that under whose supervision samples were changed of alcohol bottles seized from Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Sharjeel Memon’s hospital room.
During the hearing, Sindh chief secretary said the reports on the contents of the bottles seemed 'suspicious'. It seems like that the report has been tempered, he further added.
"We have the CCTV footage of the hospital and Memon's room which had been declared sub-jail and will submit a report after looking into the matter", he stated.
"I saw no bottle of honey in the former Sindh information minister's room and he never denied that there was alcohol in the bottles, he just said these were not his," CJP said.
In Sindh, it is like a trend that all the politicians fell ill and get shifted from jail to the hospital, Justice Saqib Nisar remarked.
The CJP said, there has been a hue and cry over my surprise visit to Sharjeel Memon's hospital room just go and look at that room it is like a presidential suite.

The bottles were sent for testing and on Monday, test report by Chief Chemical Examiner, Dr Zahid Ansari, revealed that the bottles did not contain alcohol.
According to the report, one of the bottles contained honey and the other olive oil.
