Barrister Yawar alleged that the biding process was \u201csuspicious and malicious\u201d. His client had submitted the lowest bid of $4 million, and Mediland that of around Euros 6.6 million, while the other two bids were of Euros 6.7 million and Euro 6.8 million.<br \/>\nHe urged the court to issue a restraining order as section 48 of the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) rules 2004 made it compulsory to suspend the procurement proceedings after submission of a grievance report against the tender process.<br \/>\nJustice Babar Sattar after hearing the counsel\u2019s arguments, issued the restraining order and served notices to the PIMS chairman and director, secretary health and chief executive officer (CEO) of Mediland. The hearing was adjourned till July 29.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISLAMABAD The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has barred the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) from awarding a contract to rebuild operation theatres of its orthopedics department on a plea, claiming alleged irregularities during the tender process.
