A five-member bench led by Chief Justice of Pakistan Qazi Faez Isa was hearing the case. The other members of the bench are Justice Aminuddin Khan, Justice Irfan Saadat Khan, Justice Jamal Khan Mandokhail, and Justice Syed Hasan Azhar Rizvi.
It was the second day of the hearing that was being live telecast on YouTube and the SC’s website. On the Thursday, CJP Isa said that there were good and bad people in all aspects of life as he mentioned that it has “become a fashion to malign institutions.”
