The Supreme Court (SC) has ordered the Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) to produce all the missing persons believed to be in illegal custody, by today or face action, a private TV channel reported on Friday.
The SC, in its last order, had categorically told the ISI’s counsel Raja Irshad to produce all those ‘missing people’ who were arrested and have been kept under illegal detention.
Irshad responded to the court by saying that he is unable to escort the detained people as some of them are not in good health. However, the court rejected his plea by signifying that the relatives of the missing persons do not have an issue with the situation and will appreciate their presence in the court.
The Supreme Court reiterated that the law has all the power to summon anyone to appear before the court as no one in Pakistan is considered above the law.
