Islamabad: Courts work for 24 hours, Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Justice Umar Ata Bandial said Monday in response to former prime minister Imran Khan’s question. Imran Khan asked the court why the courts had to open at midnight on April 9 — the night he was ousted as the prime minister. “No one needs to point a finger at the courts,” CJP Bandial said during the hearing on a presidential reference seeking interpretation of Article 63A of the Constitution of Pakistan. The top judge also said: “We don’t care about what is being said on social media; [we] are the protector of the Constitution”.
