ISLAMABAD    -   The Supreme Court on Tues­day annulled the Peshawar High Court’s decision to ban the export of poultry prod­ucts. A two-member SC bench comprising Justice Ijaz Ul Ah­san and Justice Sayyed Maza­har Ali Akbar Naqvi heard the case filed by the Federal Gov­ernment and Sadiq Poultry company against the PHC or­der. During the course of pro­ceedings, Advocate Sardar La­tif Khosa argued that the high court had no authority to take a suo moto notice. Import and export policy formulation, and fixation of pricing was the gov­ernment’s authority and not that of the court, he added. The Federal Government also sup­ported the petitioner’s stand against the PHC order. After a brief hearing of the case, the Supreme Court allowed the appeals of Sadiq Poultry and the government, and declared the decision of Peshawar High Court as null and void.
