SC to announce verdict of judge Arshad Malik video scandal case on Friday

ISLAMABAD, AUG 22 (DNA) – The Supreme Court (SC) of Pakistan will announce the verdict of judge Arshad Malik video scandal case on Friday (tomorrow) at 09:30 AM.

The three-member bench of the apex court – comprising Justice Sheikh Azmat Saeed and Justice Umar Ata Bandial, and headed by Chief Justice Asif Saeed Khosa – had reserved the decision on August 20 after conducting three hearing on three petitions.

The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) had submitted its report in the top court in the previous hearing which was incomplete.

The chief justice had said in his remarks that the federal government is protecting Arshad Malik by not reverting his service to Lahore, and stressed that his conduct brought shame to all judges.

Justice Asif Saeed Khosa had said judges of such characters can be blackmailed by many people and expressed annoyance that Arshad Malik visited the suspect’s home after issuing verdict.=DNA
