Author: Agencies

ISLAMABAD: Chief Justice Anwar Zaheer Jamalli here on Tuesday declared that the court will be hearing the case of Panama Leaks regularly on daily basis in order to take the decision.

A 5-member larger bench of the Supreme Court, comprising Chief Justice Anwar Zaheer Jamali, Justice Asif Saeed Khosa, Justice Amir Hani Muslim, Justice Sheikh Azmat Saeed and Justice Ijazul Hassan, is hearing the petitions filed by PTI Chairman Imran Khan, Awami Muslim League (AML) chief Sheikh Rashid Ahmed and Advocate Tariq Asad.

Shah Mehmood Qureshi and Asad Umar are representing Imran Khan. A legal team of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has advised him not to go to the SC as he has been declared a proclaimed offender in two different cases related to the protest sit-in at the D-Chowk in 2014, and could be arrested.
