Pakistan to set up fast-track courts for Pakistani expatriates to settle land-grab cases

Dubai: Pakistan will soon start fast-track courts to settle land-grabbing cases of Non-Resident Pakistanis (NRPs), Gulf News can reveal.

“There is good news for all Pakistanis living abroad as we will soon set up fast-track courts dedicated to expatriates to help settle their cases on a priority basis,” said Zulfiqar Bukhari, Special Assistance to Prime Minister on Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resources Development.

He said the courts would settle NRPs’ cases within one month.

“Land grabbing back home is a one of the major issues facing the NRPs. We have received a huge number of complaints regarding this. We are working with the Law Ministry to set up special courts to handle these cases since there is no other alternative to address their complaints. Normal courts take years to decide such cases,” Bukhari explained. Around 9 million Pakistanis live outside their country, including 1.6 million in the UAE.

Bukhari, who is on visit to the UAE to understand NRPs’ problems, was speaking at an event hosted by the Pakistan Business Council (PBC) at a hotel in Dubai on Sunday. Minister of Information Fawad Chaudhry, Pakistan Ambassador Moazzam Ahmed Khan and Iqbal Dawood, President of the PBC, along with a large number of community members, mainly Pakistani businessmen, attended the function.

The reason I started this thread is because:

-the Local media has a done a Blackout of this news since the Local media is pathetic.

-Secondly and most importantly, there are thousands of overseas Pakistanis who have been scammed in Pakistan. For instance, Land and houses belonging to Overseas Pakistanis has been sold of by their own family members without their knowledge.

So hopefully, such courts can expedite justice for overseas Pakistanis whose cases in local courts have been sitting there for years.

@Horus @waz @Clutch .... what do you guys think about this?

The government is doing this to encourage foreign investment in Pakistan and to provide confidence in the legal system.

The Pakistani #FakeNews media has an agenda against the PTI government because this government isn't bribing them by "advertising" in their #IndiaAppeaser news media...

Dawn cutting salaries by 40%, GEO employees going on strike, and other outlets shutting down, it is just a matter of time now.

Hopefully, with these special courts in place, overseas Pakistanis get the confidence to invest more in the country.
