SC reserves judgement in Arsalan Iftikhar review petition
Supreme Court hears the review petition on Suddle Commission.
ISLAMABAD:
The Supreme Court has reserved judgement on the objections raised by Zahid Bukhari, Malik Riaz Hussain’s counsel, over the three-member bench, which is hearing his review petition against the court’s August 30 judgement in the Dr Arsalan Iftikhar case.
A three-member bench of the apex court, headed by Justices Jawwad S Khawaja, Eajaz Afzal Khan and Chaudhry Ijaz Ahmad, heard the review petition filed by Riaz against the Dr Shoaib Suddle Commission, which is probing a business deal between Dr Iftikhar and Hussain.
During the hearing, Bukhari objected over the constitution of the bench as he contended that the same bench which had given the August 30 decision should hear this matter.
Sardar Ishaq, the counsel for Dr Iftikhar, alleged Riaz was using delaying tactics and he also did not appear before the Suddle commission.
The court however reserved its judgement.
