ISLAMABAD, (Pakistan Point News - 06th Feb, 2018) : Chief Justice Main Saqib Nisar said on Tuesday that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police should prove through its performance that it was not under any political pressure. The chief justice made the aforementioned statement during proceedings of the Asma murder case. During the hearing, Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar slammed the performance of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police for not being able to catch the suspect in the murder of the medical student.
“Till when can the suspect be brought back from Saudi Arabia or Dubai, wherever he is? It looks as if we will have to issue red warrants for the arrest of Mujahid,” said the chief justice. DG FIA Bashir Memon told the court that it was not certain whether the suspect was in Dubai or Saudi Arabia. He said that it seems as if the suspect had planned Asma’s murder. PTI representatives Fawad Chaudhry and District President Aftab Alam were present during the hearing as well.
“Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police should prove through its performance that it is not under any political pressure,” he said. Justice Saqib Nisar wondered why Aftab Alam had not been included in the investigation of Asma’s murder. He said that Fawad Chaudhry was always full of praises for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police. “One likes his own things but hates that of the other,” he said. The bench also summoned the home secretary to the court with the chief justice stating that even if it took him 8 pm to reach the court, the bench would wait.
