A petition seeking formation of a judicial commission to probe Lahore factory tragedy was filed in the Lahore High Court (LHC) on Friday.

The petition filed by Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) states that the government failed to identify persons responsible for the tragic incident that has claimed more than 30 lives.

The building was constructed in violation of building codes and its map was not approved as well, the plaintiff added.

The court was requested to form a judicial commission to investigate the incident.

Punjab government, district administration and LDA were made respondents in the petition.
