ISLAMABAD: The illegal occupation of properties owned by Hindus in Sindh came to light Friday as Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Mian Saqib Nisar took notice of the matter.
According to a statement issued by the spokesperson of Supreme Court, the notice has been taken after a retired professor, Dr Bhagwan Devi, posted a video on social media.
In the video, the professor, a resident of Larkana, has alleged that land belonging to Hindus in Sindh was being illegally occupied with the help of fake documents. Due to this, a feeling of insecurity was prevalent among the Hindu residents of the province.
