ISLAMABAD: A 13-member full court bench of the Supreme Court resumed hearing a petition filed by the Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC), an ally of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) challenging Peshawar High Court’s (PHC) decision to deny it reserved seats in assemblies.
The Supreme Court (SC) full court headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Iss, comprising Justices Syed Mansoor Ali Shah, Munib Akhtar, Yahya Afridi, Aminuddin Khan, Mandokhail, Muhammad Ali Mazhar, Ayesha Malik, Athar Minallah, Syed Hasan Azhar Rizvi, Shahid Waheed, Irfan Saadat Khan and Naeem Akhtar Afghan has resumed hearing the case.
CJP Qazi Faez Isa on Monday during a hearing questioned why Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) committed suicide by joining the Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) when it was already a political party.
“Why did the independent candidates leave PTI when it is a political party? Why did you commit suicide by joining another party which goes against your arguments?” asked the chief justice.
