Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa declared on Monday that no journalist or member of the public can be prevented by the Supreme Court from voicing criticism. He also instructed the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) not to file a lawsuit against any of these individuals for their criticism of the highest court. During a suo motu case hearing on journalist harassment, the chief justice addressed the investigative body and directed the immediate removal of notices sent to journalists who had criticised judges. The top court postponed the hearing on the harassment of journalists to Tuesday (tomorrow), directing the director general of the FIA to meet with the journalists. In addition, the federal government was ordered by the court to provide a report on the tormenting of journalists within two weeks.
