ISLAMABAD – The Supreme Court of Pakistan fixed on Friday the date for the hearing of a suo motu case on the sit-in staged by the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) at Faizabad Interchange last year.
The three-week long sit-in, which had paralyzed the federal capital, was called off on November 27, 2107 after protesters reached an agreement with PML-N government.
A two-judge bench headed by Justice Mushir Alam and comprising Justice Qazi Faez Isa will hear the suo motu case on November 16.
