ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court has allowed the wife of Justice Qazi Faez Isa to record her statement via video link in the property-related matter.
The hearing over Justice Qazi Faez Isa’s petition was conducted by Justice Umar Ata Bandial. During the hearing, Isa maintained that the presidential reference against him is based on illegal intent.
Moreover, the wife of Justice Qazi was requested by the judge to talk briefly and take care of court decorum.
The move came after the request of Justice Isa to the court to allow his wife to present her stance in the court via video link as his wife is not willing to tell anything to the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR).
During the hearing conducted earlier, Defence lawyer Farogh Naseem told the court that Prime Minister Imran Khan respects the supremacy of court. He further maintained that as per the prime minister himself, if his property was found in London, it should be seized and the money should be put in the national treasury. To which, the judge remarked that the court had not said that the property belongs to the prime minister.
