The District and Sessions Courts in Islamabad on Wednesday adjourned the hearing of a case related to a disputed tweet against Imaan Mazari and Hadi Ali Chattha due to a lawyers’ strike.
The case was taken up by Additional District and Sessions Judge Muhammad Afzal Majoka. The court was informed that the Islamabad Bar Association was observing a strike due to which regular court work could not be carried out. The court postponed the proceedings without taking any substantive action on the case.
During the hearing, Chattha appeared before the court. However, due to absence of lawyers, arguments could not be presented.
