A bid to halt the inquiry into the PTI leader in the lawyer murder case is denied by the Supreme Court

The prosecution’s attempt to indict the PTI chairman in the Quetta murder of a well-known lawyer was dismissed by the Supreme Court on Tuesday.

Due to opposition to their client’s nomination in the murder case, the defence has petitioned the court to get a stay order. But the motion to revoke the non-bailable warrants that had been issued for the accused was also denied by a two-judge panel made up of Justice Ijazul Ahsan and Justice Ayesha Malik.

The bench stated that the two-member Supreme Court bench was unable to grant a stay because the plea had been rejected by a two-member high court bench.
