Rule Changes

Suspended PHC proceedings on Article 199 petitions filed on or after October 12; awaiting KP advocate general's report on troop deployment

The Federal Constitutional Court suspended Peshawar High Court proceedings on petitions filed under Article 199 on or after October 12, ruling that the army's deployment under Article 245 takes precedence. On November 7, the Peshawar High Court removed about 105 petitions from its November 10 cause list, including challenges to the emergency and to the detention of suspended Chief Minister Sohail Afridi.
