–AAG tells court FIA has asked Interpol to issue red warrant for HaqqaniISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court (SC) on Thursday issued arrest warrants for former ambassador of Pakistan to the US, Hussain Haqqani. The SC had directed Haqqani to appear in the Memogate case but the latter failed to comply with the court orders. In this regard, a court notice has already been issued to Hussain Haqqani and other respondents of the case — including former prime minister Nawaz Sharif. The scandal, taken to the Supreme Court by then opposition leader Nawaz Sharif, led to Haqqani’s resignation. Earlier, the chief justice had summoned details of the Memogate case while hearing a case related to the right to vote for overseas Pakistanis.
