The Supreme Court of Pakistan has decided not to suspend the review of judgments law and will continue to hear arguments tomorrow. The case involves the election commission’s application for a review of the Punjab elections. The bench is headed by Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial, who noted that the future course of action would depend on the strength of the case against the review law.
The lawyer for the petitioner claims the review law infringes on judicial independence and contradicts Article 10 of the Constitution. The court will also consider the PTI’s request to join the case as a party.
