Talking to media at the Prime Minister’s House, JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman said if the Supreme Court doesn’t form a full court, “then we [PDM] will also reject all decisions of the judiciary as we will not appear before this three-member bench.”
Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah said that the government will boycott the proceeding of the case in the Supreme Court in case the court did not constitute the full bench.
On Monday, after hours-long hearing, it was being anticipated that a decision on the request for full bench would be announced, but that was not the case as the CJP remarked: “We have to see the Constitution [further].” “Article 63-A has a long journey,” he added.
Mazari said that the decision of the ECP to uphold the declaration was based on the violation of directions issued by Imran Khan and communicated to the members by PTI Secretary Asad Umar. The decision shows that directions could be issued by party head which was upheld by the ECP, the detailed ruling said.
