A five-member bench headed by CJP Qazi Faez Isa resumed hearing


Islamabad: The Supreme Court (SC) of Pakistan on Thursday accepted a review petition against its 2022 verdict related to the defection clause under Article 63-A of the Constitution.
A five-member bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa and including Justices Naeem Akhtar Afghan, Aminuddin Khan, Jamal Khan Mandokhail, and Mazhar Alam Khan Miankhel, resumed hearing the review plea filed by the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) in June 2022.
During today’s hearing, Barrister Ali Zafar said he did not wish to be part of the case if his client was not being allowed to appear via video link. However, CJP Isa then asked him to assist the court, which he agreed to.
The CJ announced that SCBA’s appeal was being accepted unanimously and that the detailed verdict would be issued later.
