Supreme Court summons Qasim Suri over electoral irregularities

The Supreme Court has taken a significant step by issuing an advertisement to summon Qasim Suri in a case related to electoral irregularities. This move comes after Suri failed to appear before the court despite being summoned, leading the court to order the notice to be posted outside his residence. Chief Justice Qazi Faiz Isa expressed disappointment over Suri's deliberate absence and his brother's refusal to accept the notice.

During the hearing, Suri's lawyer, Naeem Bukhari, claimed ignorance of social media, despite his client's active presence on such platforms. Chief Justice Isa advised Bukhari to stay updated and not consider himself old. The court has set the next hearing for July, with the specific date to be mentioned in the court order.

The Supreme Court's actions in summoning Qasim Suri highlight the importance of accountability and adherence to legal proceedings. It is crucial for all individuals, regardless of their status, to respect the court's directives and participate in the legal process. This case serves as a reminder of the significance of upholding the rule of law and ensuring transparency in electoral matters.
