On July 18, the Lahore High Court directed the authorities concerned to produce Punjab police encounter specialist Abid Boxer before it.
Justice Anwarul Haq of the LHC gave this order after he was informed that Boxer has been in the custody of the authorities since February this year.
Deputy Attorney General Syed Zafar Abbas Gilani told the court that former police officer, who was allegedly involved in many criminal acts, including murder, attempted murder and land-grabbing, has been brought back to Pakistan from Dubai in February.
