During the course of proceedings, the Chief Justice remarked that Aamir Liaquat was guilty of ridiculing the court and its orders.
He also remarked that “We uplifted the respect for court. At first, people disrespect courts and then seek apology”.
The CJP asked if the additional attorney general was present in the court as he had to frame the charge sheet against Hussain today.
