'Days of martial law in Pakistan now history'

[Gautam]

Islamabad: Pakistan’s Chief Justice
Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry has said
the Supreme Court had blocked the
way for establishing military courts
through its judicial orders, and added
that only the constitutional system
would function in the country.
Justice Chaudhry, who was hearing
the presidential reference to revisit the
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto (ZAB) case, pointed
out that the court had terminated the
military court’s law in the Liaquat
Hussain case.
“It is a loud and clear message to all,
nobody should be in any illusion
furthermore, so long, we are sitting
and functioning under the Constitution,
InshAllah, nothing will happen to the
system. Those days are over when
people feared that something would
happen overnight,” The Daily Times
quoted Justice Chaudhry, as saying.
He said that the court will deliver an
exemplary verdict in the ZAB case,
adding that it would also decide
whether it could revisit any duly
decided case or not under the Article
186 of the Pakistan’s Constitution.
Justice Chaudhary said that Pakistan’s
President is the symbol of the
federation, therefore he should treat
everyone equally and not send the
case of an individual to the court.
