Earlier, Justice Ijaz Ul Ahsan remarked that Al-Khair was a chartered university, how could it issue degrees on a massive scale.

“How could the Higher Education Commission (HEC) verify these degrees when the HEC has no authority to decide about a university based in Azad Kashmir,” Justice Ijaz Ul Ahsan questioned.

A representative of the HEC informed the bench that Al-Khair University has illegal campuses across the country. “They have as many as 800 illegal campuses in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP),” an HEC official said. (With input from INP)
