ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court on Friday issued show-cause notices to Senator Faisal Vawda and Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan’s (MQM-P) leader Mustafa Kamal over anti-judiciary remarks during press conferences.

A three-member bench, led by Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa and including Justice Naeem Akhtar Afghan and Justice Irfan Saadat Khan, conducted the hearing.

Supreme Court presided over the proceedings of a suo motu notice taken a day ago against independent Senator Faisal Vawda’s press conference, wherein he came hard on the Islamabad High Court (IHC) judges over their letter alleging spy agencies of interference in judicial matters.
