The apex court bench decided against the plea seeking a live stream of the proceeding in a 4-1 ruling with only Justice Athar Minullah supporting the request.
During the previous hearing on May 16, which wasn’t broadcast live, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) incarcerated founder Imran Khan appeared before the court via video link after the former prime minister expressed his wish to present his own arguments in the case.
Before the commencement of the hearing today, Justice Minallah had called for the live streaming of the proceedings of the said case. “The hearing should be broadcast live since this was the case before as well,” the judge said.
