ISLAMABAD:
The presidential reference relating to the Zulfikar Ali Bhutto case has already gone through an overhaul but a senior jurist, appointed as Amicus Curiae by the Supreme Court traced further gaps in the reference.
Advocate SM Zafar submitted a statement/reply to the court and found there was no specific instances cited in the presidential reference, relatable to the violation of Article 4 (1) & (2) (a), 8, 9, 10A, 14 and 25. Earlier, the court had suggested Advocate Babar Awan to redraft the reference since it was lacking questions of law.
