Prime Minister Imran Khan has summoned an emergency session of the federal cabinet again where he has summoned the summary regarding the extension of the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa, reported on Tuesday. According to sources, the prime minister summoned another session today, calling former law minister Farogh Naseem, Attorney General, legal team and other senior cabinet members. The cabinet’s approval was sought for giving an extension to army chief General Bajwa after the Supreme Court had earlier suspended a notification over the same matter. An amendment in the Defence Act was approved by the cabinet. Sources claimed that the new summary was sent to President Alvi for approval. “The court was told that the extension is being granted in light of the regional security situation. Dealing with regional security situation is the job of the army as an institution, not just that of an officer’s. “If the regional security situation reasoning is accepted, then every army officer would want a re-appointment.” “The attorney general could not present any legal reason for an extension in tenure or a new appointment,” the court observed. The top court adjourned the case until Thursday morning. The hearing was adjourned twice during the course of the day and Chief Justice Asif Saeed Khosa suggested that the government should asses “what it is doing”.
