![]() On March 11, the Federal Shariat Court (FSC) suspended the LHC judgment and decided to hear the case itself but human rights bodies expressed reservations about the matter because they feared that the Federal Court would hear the case under the controversial Hudood laws. Later taking su moto action, Supreme Court Chief Justice Nazim Hussain Siddiqui asked the LHC and the FSC to send the record of the case. The SC is expected to hear the case next week. |
