The federal government requested the Supreme Court of Pakistan to reject the petitions.

Islamabad: The federal government has submitted its response to the Supreme Court, requesting the dismissal of petitions challenging military trials in cases related to attacks on military installations.
In its written response, the government has argued that military trials do not violate constitutional rights, emphasizing that trials for attacks on military installations should be conducted in military courts.
The government's stance maintains that the Army Act and Official Secrets Act are still in effect and have not been challenged to date.
It asserts that all actions taken under these acts are lawful and in accordance with the law. The response highlights that on May 9, systematic targeting of military installations took place with the aim of undermining national security.
Attacks occurred at the GHQ, War Commander House, PAF Base, and various other locations across the country, resulting in injuries to 250 individuals during 62 violent incidents in Punjab.
The government has requested that the full court hear the case against military trials, including the arguments of Senior Registrar Yahya Afridi, who has already presented his case before the full court.
On the other hand, the Supreme Court has accepted the request of Supreme Court Bar President Abid Zubairi for a hearing on the case against civilian trials in military courts.
The Registrar's Office has assigned the case to the 6-member larger bench of the Supreme Court, which will hear the proceedings against military trials.
