The Supreme Court will hear the review petition against its verdict in the NRO implementation case tomorrow (Wednesday). According to reports, a five-member bench headed by Justice Asif Saeed Khosa will hear the petition.
Others members of the bench are Justice Sarmad Jalal Usmani‚ Justice Gulzar Ahmed‚ Justice Ather Saeed and Justice Ejaz Afzal. The government had filed a review petition against the July 12 order of the Supreme Court in the NRO implementation case. The petition was filed by Attorney General Irfan Qadir.
According to the review petition, the prime minister had not received any advice to write the letter, adding that he was not bound to write the letter.
The petition further claimed that the Supreme Court’s June 27 and July 12 orders in the case were unlawful; and if the letter was written, it would violate Article 248 of the constitution. Another argument made in the review petition says that the court itself could not write the letter to Swiss authorities, so why was it expecting the prime minister to do so.
