Thursday, August 30, 2012 - Islamabad—A special bench of the Supreme Court will announce verdict in Dr Arsalan’s case today. The bench consisted of Justice Khilji Arif Hussain and Justice Jawwad S Khawaja.
Earlier on Tuesday, the court had reserved the judgement.
The bench had stopped the joint investigation team (JIT) from investigating Arsalan Iftikhar’s case on August 2. Arsalan’s counsel Sardar Muhammad Ishaq completed the arguments on Tuesday after which Zahid Bukhari, the counsel for Malik Riaz Hussain, gave counter arguments.
Zahid Bukhari expressed serious reservations over a press note against the record of the Supreme Court’s registrar in which he (the registrar) had stated that investigation against Arsalan Iftikhar had not been stopped. He said the statement given by the registrar was against the facts.
The special bench on August 2 had stopped the JIT from investigating the case until further orders, while the investigation team was due to go to London.
