SC forms cell for overseas litigants

The Supreme Court of Pakistan has established an Overseas Litigants Facilitation Cell (OLFC) in a significant step aimed at assisting Pakistanis living abroad in pursuing their legal matters before the country's top court.

According to an official statement, overseas Pakistanis will now be able to approach the facilitation cell through a dedicated WhatsApp number (+92-326-4442444) and the court's online complaints portal.

The court clarified that only cases falling under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court will be registered with the facilitation cell. Every individual residing abroad will be considered an overseas litigant under this initiative.
