SC returns plea filed against civilians’ trials in military courts during PTI regime

Registrar of the Supreme Court (SC) on Wednesday returned with objections the petition filed against the trials of civilians in military courts during the PTI government, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

In his petition, Colonel (r) Inamur Raheem had prayed to the court to declare the trials of civilians held during the PTI government null and void.

The registrar said the petitioner had failed to prove how the case could be termed of public importance; secondly, prior to that he did not approach a relevant forum, and thirdly he had failed to list the reasons why he had approached the apex court.
