A five-member bench, headed by Chief Justice Qazi Faiz Isa, accepted the review petition, despite being overdue by three days.

The review petition was filed concerning Article 63-A, which deals with the defection of parliamentarians. The court’s decision comes after a prolonged period of three months and 21 days since the initial review.
