The Federal Constitutional Court (FCC) has issued new guidelines for courts and authorities dealing with custody disputes involving parents from different nationalities. These guidelines stress the need to respect international child abduction protocols and to give due consideration to foreign custody orders. The FCC's three-judge bench, headed by Chief Justice Aminuddin Khan, overturned a March 16 order from the Sindh High Court that had previously directed the father, Muhammad Faraz Shaikh, to return custody of his minor son, Rohaan, to his mother, Javeria Shahani.
The Sindh High Court's order had previously placed the case back under review after the father failed to produce the child before the court.
