The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has reserved its decision on a plea challenging the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)’s scheduled long march and protest in Islamabad on September 27. The PTI has organized a nationwide demonstration, including in the capital, to advocate for the release of party founder Imran Khan and promote the Constitution's supremacy.
Waqas Ahmed, a citizen, filed a case against the protest, arguing that it would disrupt daily life, traffic, and business in the federal capital. The case is currently being heard by a larger bench, headed by IHC Chief Justice Sardar Muhammad Sarfraz Dogar, with Justice Muhammad Azam Khan and Justice Muhammad Asif also members of the bench.
On Monday, the court reserved its verdict after the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police chief assured the court that no "illegal or unconstitutional activities" would be tolerated during the protest. Islamabad Advocate General Naveed Hayat Malik informed the court at the beginning of the hearing that a miscellaneous application had been submitted, seeking permission to screen videos of PTI protests from 2022 and 2024.
