Lahore:
Group Editor Express Ayaz Khan says, "First, check in which branch the decision is stuck. I think this decision is stuck somewhere. When you said that the signed decision is available, it would have been better to ask them who signed it."
Speaking on Express News' program Experts, he said, "You know our judges, don't you, Masha Allah? Secondly, our judges are in a hurry these days because we have to make many decisions, so they didn't have time."
Analyst Faisal Hussain said that whatever decision comes, the way it is being awaited has lost its importance, whether it comes in favor or against. Now the impression has been established that it will be the result of negotiations. If the matter is resolved, it will come. If the matter is not resolved, it will come.
Analyst Naveed Hussain said that the reasons given by the judge for not pronouncing the verdict are very strange reasoning. There is a precedent for sentencing the accused in his absence.
We are talking about corruption. You see, General Pervez Musharraf was tried in absentia for high treason and sentenced to death in absentia, so why can't the case against Imran Khan be decided?
Analyst Amir Ilyas Rana said that there is something that is being hidden. Our reporter says that the judge's face was filled with sadness when he said that he had the signed decision with him and he did not come.
Although, if we look at Judge Bashir Sahib, who is very famous and sentenced two former Prime Ministers Nawaz Sharif and Imran Khan, the judge is the same, the cases were pending in different courts, the sentence cannot be pronounced in absentia, but this work has also been done in this same Adiala Jail.
Analyst Muhammad Ilyas said that the interesting thing is that it was announced 24 hours ago that the verdict would be announced. Everyone had been waiting for it for a long time. It had been postponed twice before and now it has been postponed for the third time. What was the difficulty in announcing the verdict?
