Supreme Court on January 6 restrained a local magistrate from proceeding on the bail application of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) 'chief' and mastermind of Mumbai 2008 attack (also known as 26/11) Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi until January 7,2014, when the apex court will take up the Government’s appeal against the suspension of his detention, reports Dawn. Also, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) issued notices to Lakhvi on the appeal filed by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), seeking cancellation of bail granted to him by the Anti Terrorism Court (ATC) in the Mumbai attacks case.A magistrate in Islamabad had to give a decision on the bail application, but a two-judge Supreme Court bench, headed by Justice Jawwad S. Khawaja, stopped the judicial officer from passing any order until January 7. The court also issued notices to Lakhvi to answer the contention in the Government’s appeal, to be served upon him through the Adiala Jail superintendent, where the accused is currently detained. The court issued the notice with the observation that since there was also an IHC order in favour of Lakhvi, the court was also cognizant of the requirements of the fundamental rights of its citizens. “We will be lost if we deviate from the constitution,” Justice Khawaja observed.In a joint appeal, the Secretary Interior on behalf of the Federal Government, District Magistrate Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) and Islamabad Senior Superintendent of Police, had sought the annulment of the December 29, 2014 Islamabad High Court (IHC) order, suspending Lakhvi’s detention orders. The Attorney General Salman Aslam Butt argued that High Court order was not sustainable in the light of earlier Supreme Court judgments and pointed out that Lakhvi was a member of the proscribed outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) who was arrested in a terrorism case.But the court observed that the allegations against Lakhvi regarding his involvement in the Mumbai attacks was not relevant to the present appeal, since the court was only concerned with the West Pakistan Maintenance of Public Order (MPO) 1960, under which Lakhvi was currently detained.

The notification which was issued by Islamabad’s District Administration was termed as null and void by Justice Noorul Haq on March 13. Lakhvi’s lawyer Rizwan Abbasi had put forth arguments pertaining to the case, objecting that all of the statements related to the case were in Hindi language. The Islamabad Deputy Commissioner had issued Lakhvi’s detention orders under the Maintenance of Public Order on December 18, 2014 immediately after he was granted post-arrest bail by An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC).

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on April 13 ordered the Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) to conclude in two months a terrorism case against Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) 'commander' and mastermind of Mumbai 2008 terror (also known as 26/11) attacks, Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, reports Dawn. A Division Bench, headed by Justice Noorul Haq Qureshi, also bound the defence lawyers to ensure their presence in every hearing otherwise the high court would be left with no choice but to accept the federal government’s plea to cancel the bail granted to Lakhvi. ATC judge Syed Kausar Abbas Zaidi on December 18, 2014, granted post-arrest bail to Lakhvi. Later, the federal government issued Lakhvi’s detention orders that were further extended on January 18 and February 18 for 30 days each. Subsequently, the Government through the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) challenged the ATC decision in the high court and maintained that the trial court had ignored the testimony available with it in the Mumbai attacks case. Special prosecutor Azhar Chaudhry and Abu Zar Pirzada appeared on behalf of the FIA and requested the high court to cancel the bail, arguing that the trial against Lakhvi would be concluded soon.

A three-member bench of the Supreme Court, headed by Justice Jawwad S. Khawaja, on July 2 asked the Attorney General to explain as to why the government’s action plan was only focused on Deeni Madaris (seminaries) and no action was being taken against the terrorist organisations, reports The News. “Why terrorist organisations are overlooked by them? Action should be taken against them as well. Governments should do their job. The court will issue no directive. No one can heave a sigh of relief. Every day a terror incident is published in newspapers. This is the level of seriousness of governments that terror incidents are taking place every day. Tell us, what the government has done within six months and six days,” asked Justice Khawaja.

Supreme Court on October 27 urged the state to ensure that no one is forced to endure an investigation or trial on the basis of false blasphemy allegations, reports Daily Times. On October 6, 2015, a three-judge bench of the Supreme Court, headed by Justice Asif Saeed Khosa, had scrapped a plea seeking revocation of Qadri’s death sentence for assassinating former Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer on January 4, 2011. The sentence was first awarded by an Anti-Terrorism Court and then upheld by the Islamabad High Court (IHC) before it was challenged in the apex court. Authoring the 39-page verdict, Justice Khosa said Qadri had murdered Taseer on the basis of nothing but hearsay. “It is an unfortunate fact which cannot be disputed that in many cases registered in respect of the offence of blasphemy, false allegations are leveled for extraneous purposes.” He said that in the absence of adequate safeguards against abuse of the blasphemy law, people falsely accused of the offence suffer irrevocably. The order said any call for reform in religion-related laws should be seen as a call for introducing safeguards against abuse of such laws, adding that it should not be interpreted as a call against the religious aspects of the offences covered by the laws.
