A treason case has been registered and convicted for criticizing Pak army Chief Bajwa for extending his tenure.
Hassan Askari, son of retired Major General Zafar Mehdi Aksari, has been sentenced by a military court to life in prison. Hasan was defended by an official appointed by a Pakistani military court at a trial in July this year.
Father Zafar complained that he was having trouble meeting his son in the high-security jail in Sahiwal. Earlier in January, the Islamabad High court, which heard the treason case, directed that the entire trial be recorded on camera.
Can a military court prosecute a citizen during a trial? The question arose.
However, the court later clarified that the verdict should be given by the military authorities.
