“I remember the ANP Liaquat Bagh meeting where there were many martyrs of ANP, and they took their bodies peacefully.”
He assured the House that he would talk to the Chief Minister of Punjab about the matter.Meanwhile, Minister for Law and Justice and Human Rights Senator Azam Nazeer, while explaining the meeting between the International Monetary Fund(IMF) delegation and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Pakistan, told the Upper House of the Parliament that the IMF delegation did not come to discuss any case or file cases.
He said that the IMF has a program related to governance and judicial reforms, and the meeting with the Chief Justice took place in this context.
The Law Minister said that some circles in the country wrote letters to the IMF, which created the impression of external interference in the country’s affairs, adding the meeting was not to influence any case or court decisions but to improve the judicial system.
