SC warns agencies against illegal detentions | The Nation

The Supreme Court on Monday said numbers of missing persons were increasing and warned secret agencies against illegal detention of people.


Supreme Court directed Inspector General of Police Islamabad Bin Yamin Khan to produce within two weeks a report regarding the recovery of a youth Umar Wali.
A three-member bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Iftikhar Muhammed Chaudhry heard a case regarding missing persons.
Justice Khilji Arif Hussain remarked that the Constitution needs to be amended if the spy agencies were to run the national affairs.
Meantime, the Chief Justice Chaudhry said there is no leniency for the anti-state elements and the criminals, adding the incidents regarding the missing persons are not coming to an end.
Justice Khilji noted nobody will be allowed to function beyond the lawful domain; hence, secret agencies, if willing to run the country, should get the Constitution amended.
Appearing before the bench, the IG Islamabad Khan said police takes extra care to recover the abducted person safe and sound, as his life, to the police, is highly valued.
The court directed the IG Bin Yamin to present the report over the issue within two weeks.

No agency is bigger than Pakistan, they must respect law, few illitrate, bad manner, stupid people damaging everything
We must support and protect our indipendent judiciery system and have trust and faith on them while agencies should protect judges to take any fair actions and all crook judges should be booted out
Until we take out corruption in our society nothing can be improved
History showed that people use money and references and influence to used agencies against their rivals
