A five-member bench, headed by Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, was hearing the case after the SC took suo motu notice of the incident on Thursday.
The court said that the Interior Secretary should consult Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani over the removal of the two officials and directed the secretary to present a report on the action ordered against them. The bench also said that such incidents increased “hate” against the security forces.
It also directed the Interior Secretary to appoint Deputy Inspector General Hyderabad to investigate the incident.
The chief justice said the appointment of incompetent officials had led to incompetent administration.
The hearing will resume at 12:30pm today.
