“The FIR should be registered by tonight,” CJP Bandial remarked as the court directed the authorities concerned to submit a copy to the court by tomorrow (Wednesday). 

A larger bench, headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Umar Ata Bandial and comprising Justice Ijazul Ahsan, Justice Jamal Mandokhail, Justice Sayyed Mazahar Ali Akbar Naqvi and Justice Mohammad Ali Mazhar, heard the case. 

The court also sought the inquiry report of the committee formed by the government to probe the killing, adjourning the hearing till tomorrow. 

During the hearing, the CJP wondered why the court had not yet been provided the report by the fact-finding committee. 

“Why has it not been provided to the court as yet?” the CJP asked. 

The additional attorney general informed the court that Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah was in Faisalabad when the report was received. 

“The report will be handed over to the SC once Sanaullah peruses it,” he said. “Does the interior minister have to make changes to the report?” the CJP asked, adding that the court could summon Sanaullah. 

It is the government’s job to investigate not the judiciary’s, he said. 

“A journalist was killed. It should be revealed who was behind the killing,” the CJP remarked, adding that the fact-finding committee which had travelled to Kenya had been back in Pakistan for some time. 

“Why has the final report of the government formed commission not been provided to the SC?”
