The Lahore High Court chief justice on Thursday constituted a full bench for the disposal of a petition seeking directions to stop Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) head Imran Khan from leading procession to the residence of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. The bench comprises Justice Shahid Hameed Dar, Justice Muhammad Anwaarul Haq and Justice Muhammad Qasim Khan. It will hold its proceedings from next week.
On September 17, a single bench of Justice Shahid Karim had referred the petition to the chief justice for constitution of a larger bench. A lawyer Farooq Sattar had moved this petition in his already pending constitutional petition against 2014 sit-in by the PTI. Applicant's counsel A K Dogar said that hateful speeches generate discord and confrontation among different sections of the society.
