The Chief Justice of Islamabad High Court, Athar Minullah, on the request of PTI Chairman Imran Khan, declared it safe and deleted the provisions of terrorism from the case against him.
In the case of a statement against PTI Chairman Imran Khan regarding the statement of the female Additional Sessions Judge, Imran Khan's expulsion case was heard. He asked the special prosecutor to tell if there is any other crime.
The special prosecutor argued that the former prime minister spoke at the rally, with a large fan following. So the effect is dangerous.
The court said that you should leave the other things and give arguments in the case of terrorism, 7 ATA is being misused here, you say that there is nothing in the investigation, only this speech, then what is the design?
The special prosecutor said that if judges and civil officers are threatened, a case is made.
On this occasion, the court held a dialogue with the special prosecutor, the chief justice said that you should not worry about the judges, and told them that there is nothing to harm anyone in Imran Khan's speech.
The prosecutor said that Imran Khan provoked in his speech, he is the former prime minister and maybe the future prime minister as well, Imran Khan's followers include educated and uneducated people, he did not say that he will take any legal action but said that We will take action if the SHO says to someone, I will see you, then there can be serious effects and consequences, just like the inflammatory statement of the former Prime Minister also has effects.
The Chief Justice said that Faisal Raza Abidi was also tried in two cases of terrorism and he was acquitted in both cases. It does not appear to be made in this case either, you are admitting yourself, nothing came out except the speech in the investigation.
The court further said that in the case of Sikander the shooter, the design was different, here you are believing yourself, nothing was found except the speech.
The court inquired that you have been repeatedly asked if there is any crime other than speech, so tell me, what is the crime in the case you are referring to?
The special prosecutor said that in the case referred to, the accused was accused of extortion. The court said there is a difference between extortion and speech, so it is clear that there is a difference in the crime of both cases.
On this occasion, Special Prosecutor Rizwan Abbasi opposed the dismissal of Imran Khan's terrorism case and requested to dismiss the petition and submit the challan of the case.
The Chief Justice reserved the decision after the arguments were completed and after some time delivering the decision ordered to remove the provisions of terrorism from the cases against Imran Khan.
