A few cases were returned to the ordinary bench by the newly established constitutional bench on Tuesday, raising doubts about its constitutionality.
In the name of the Ministry of Petroleum, Saeed Khosa’s case was heard by a seven-member bench presided over by Justice Amin-ud-din Khan.
Only cases that fall inside the purview of the constitutional bench should be sent to it, said Justice Muhammad Ali Mazhar.
Notably, on October 23, the matter was referred to the constitutional bench by a three-member panel headed by Justice Mansoor Ali Shah.
Additionally, a different housing society case was returned to the regular bench as well.
