‘anyone’

Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa recently stated that the government's newly formed probe commission in the Faizabad sit-in case has the authority to summon anyone for investigation. During a hearing of review pleas filed against the Supreme Court's judgment in the Faizabad sit-in case, the CJP emphasized that no one is exempt and the commission can call anyone for investigation. Various pleas were subsequently filed against the verdict by different organizations and individuals. A three-member bench headed by Justice Isa is hearing the case. The Attorney General for Pakistan (AGP) Mansoor Usman Awan informed the court about the formation of a new fact-finding commission by the federal government to probe the Faizabad sit-in. The commission, comprising three members, is tasked with identifying those responsible for the sit-in and recommending legal action against them. Its findings will be submitted in a report to the federal government within two months. The CJP highlighted that ministers and MNAs who were in power during the sit-in were responsible and urged them to stand by their actions. The court ordered that the commission be trusted and adjourned the hearing for two months. The blog post also provides details about the formation of the new committee by the caretaker government and a brief overview of the Faizabad sit-in that occurred in November 2017.
