Uzma Khan said the Supreme Court’s August 18 order was deliberately not implemented in its true spirit and urged the court to ensure immediate and complete compliance with its directives.
The application stated that continued non-compliance with judicial orders amounts to a violation of law. It further maintained that the case fixation policy does not prevent the urgent hearing of a contempt petition.
According to the application, an earlier request for an urgent hearing was rejected on August 25. However, it was not made clear whether the request had been rejected by the Chief Justice.
Uzma Khan has requested the Supreme Court to fix the contempt of court petition for an immediate hearing.
