ISLAMABAD: A three-member Supreme Court bench headed by Chief Justice Iftihkar Muhammed Chaudhry heard the presidential reference of the judicial murder of former prime minister Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto on Thursday.
Babar Awan, who resigned yesterday as the law minister to appear in reference, argued that the former prime minister had suffered injustices at every stage of the case.
The Supreme Court said that it was the court’s constitutional responsibility to re-visit the case as ordered by the president and said that it would give its opinion on the case in accordance with the law and constitution.
The hearing of the case has been adjourned until April 18.
