00:00As I told you, whatever their views are, they can present them in their review petition in front of the Supreme Court.

00:13And the Supreme Court will listen to them because, as I told you, the Supreme Court does not have a discussion,

00:19but the points that have been brought up have a lot of weight in them.

00:21And if they point that out, then the review petition will definitely be heard.

00:26And the decision that the Supreme Court will make after the review petition will be finalized.

00:31But if the Supreme Court does not suspend this judgment that has been announced today, then this judgment will be finalized.

00:40If this judgment is finalized, then the Election Commission and the government, if there is a role in it,

00:48then it will be applicable to everyone that they will act on it.

00:53If they do not act on it, then notices of contempt of court will be issued against them.

00:58So you see, if a notice of contempt of court is issued against the Prime Minister,

01:01if a notice of contempt of court is issued against the Chief Election Commissioner, then what will happen?

01:05Do you remember, Yusuf Raza Gilani had said something in the era of Chaudhary Iskhar, so what happened to him?

01:13So you should think about this, a legal dispute will arise.

01:17The best way is that instead of holding conferences, tell your lawyers to go straight to the Supreme Court

01:23and listen to these review petitions tomorrow morning and suspend them.

01:29Chaudhary Ghulam Sain Sahib is with us, he also wants to ask you a question. Yes, Chaudhary Sahib.

01:34Judge Sahib, today eight judges have said that the Election Commission has failed to hold free, fair and impartial elections

01:48and they have violated the constitution. Now can you sustain this election of February 8th?

01:58Look, the issue in this petition was not about the veracity of the election.

02:05The issue in this petition was that of special sessions.

02:11So the issue that was not in this petition will not make any difference.

02:16The issue was that of special sessions, that is the main issue and the decision has been made on that.

02:23The rest is irrelevant.

02:25I would like to ask a question. Yes, Hassan, go ahead.

02:29Judge Sahib, have you ever seen such a decision, all the decisions of Pakistan,

02:36is there a court where the Supreme Court has satisfied the impugn order and dismissed the appeals?

02:46Here they dismissed the appeals of the Sunni Tat Council and satisfied the impugn order of the Peshawar High Court.

02:54Is there such an example in the past?

02:59What is the real example? In the review petition, the judge who is satisfied,

03:04and this is nothing new, the review petition is filed every other day.

03:08Sir, the appeals have been dismissed.

03:10The appeal of the Sunni Tat Council against the decision of the Peshawar High Court has been dismissed

03:17and the impugn order has been satisfied.

03:19Yes, the impugn order has been satisfied, which was of the Peshawar High Court.

03:24And the appeals have also been dismissed.

03:26What?

03:27And the appeals of the Sunni Tat Council have also been dismissed.

03:29Whose appeals have been dismissed?

03:31I have dismissed the appeals of the Sunni Tat Council and satisfied the impugn order of the Peshawar High Court.

03:38I did not know this, but I do know that they have said that the judgment of the Lahore High Court has been denied

03:44and now they have decided this.

03:47No, the Peshawar High Court.

03:49The Peshawar High Court.

03:50Mr. Judge, thank you very much for your time.
