ISLAMABAD: Following the directions of the Supreme Court of Pakistan to purge the Supreme Court, residences and offices of the judges of all bugging devices within a week, intelligence agencies remained busy to comply with the unprecedented orders of the apex court.
Sources seeking anonymity told The Frontier Post that the officials at the intelligence agencies spent a busy week ensuring that no bugging device is left at any of the places mentioned above.
Sources said that most of the devices used for bugging are planted in the vicinity of telephone exchanges or at meeting places but private places are exempted.
They informed that a special team was sent to clear those lodges which have been assigned to judges or judicial officers in Islamabad.
Supreme Court has also ordered the Director General Intelligence Bureau (IB) to file a personal affidavit declaring that all the buildings associated with the judges of the superior court are safe and without any bugging device. The affidavit is likely to be submitted on Monday. (more)
