ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court, by a majority of two to one, on Thursday set aside its Dec 29, 2022 order endorsing the closure of the right to defence of PTI founder Imran Khan in the Rs10 billion defamation suit filed by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. In April, the apex court had resumed hearing a review petition filed by PTI founder and former premier against the closure of his right to defence in the Rs10 billion defamation case. Headed by Justice Ayesha A. Malik, a three-judge SC bench also comprising Justice Muhammad Hashim Khan Kakar and Justice Ishtiaq Ibrahim took up a set of review petitions filed by Imran Khan, also a former prime minister. Justice Kakar, however, dissented from the majority judgment. Overturning the earlier judgments of the LHC as well as the trial court, the SC remanded the matter back to the trial court with the direction to provide the petitioner (Imran Khan) a reasonable opportunity to file his reply to the interrogatories and to proceed with the suit in accordance with law. Authored by Justice Ibrahim, the majority judgment on Thursday recalled that Imran’s challenge to the earlier judgment was primarily anchored on two pivotal legal infirmities: first, the illegitimacy of relying on past conduct as a retrospective basis for a penal sanction; and second, the absence of a formal application as a mandatory jurisdictional prerequisite for the invocation of Order XI, Rule 21 of the Civil Procedure Code (CPC). Justice Ibrahim observed that Order XI, Rule 21 of the CPC was not a routine tool of case management; it was the “death knell” of a party’s defence, as its nature was strictly penal. “The law does not favour the forfeiture of a substantive right of defence on a technicality unless the conduct of the party is proved to be contumacious, obstinate and stubbornly defiant.” When a court contemplates a measure that deprives a person of their fundamental right of defence, a right that is anchored in the constitutional guarantee of a fair trial under Article 10A, it must exhibit the utmost judicial restraint and proceed with absolute caution, Justice Ibrahim emphasised. He also observed that the trial court, in its orders of November 8 and 17, had explicitly acknowledged and accepted Imran’s inability to respond to interrogatories due to a critical injury sustained in a widely reported shooting incident that happened on Nov 3, 2022. Once the trial court accepted the factum of the shooting incident on Nov 8, 2022, the element of “wilfulness” was legally extinguished, the judgment said, while noting, “But on Nov 24, 2022, the trial court abruptly shifted its stance, striking out petitioner’s defence despite continued existence of the same medical incapacity.” “When a party is hospitalised due to gunshot wounds, the failure to sign an affidavit or consult with counsel is a physical impossibility and not a contumacious act,” Justice Ibrahim observed. “The law does not compel a man to do what he cannot possibly perform; thus a default occasioned by a physical catastrophe or force majeure that includes circumstances entirely beyond a party’s control, cannot be characterised as wilful or contumacious as was the case at hand.,” stated the judgement. Justice Ibrahim further observed that the trial court had acted “mechanically” in imposing this penalty upon the petitioner and that the earlier majority judgment erred in the analysis of this fact. The judgment conceded that the former prime minister indeed sought numerous adjournments since the inception of the proceedings, as rightly pointed out by the earlier majority judgment. However, it was pertinent to note that the trial court saw fit to grant them without ever resorting to the lesser penalties available in the judicial quiver. “Had the court truly determined that the petitioner was employing strategic delay tactics, it was empowered to ensure the expeditiousness of justice through the imposition of high costs or peremptory orders with realistic timeframes.” “Instead, the trial court remained dormant in its disciplinary capacity for years, only to jump to the most extreme penalty on Nov 24, 2022, less than a month after the documented firing incident. Such an approach ignores the principle of proportionality as the judiciary’s duty to ensure expeditious justice does not grant a license to commit summary injustice,” Justice Ibrahim observed. Thus, the judgment said that the earlier majority judgment suffers from errors apparent on the face of the record, which have resulted in a manifest miscarriage of justice, adding that the “judgment erred fundamentally in validating the invocation of Order XI, Rule 21 of the CPC based upon a retrospective evaluation of petitioner’s past conduct, while ignoring the immediate and compelling medical incapacity resulting from the assassination attempt”. Meanwhile, Justice Malik, in her additional note, observed that in a case plagued by adjournments since 2017, the trial court should weigh the “balance between a fair trial and the legitimate grounds for the latest request for adjournment”. “The courts are entrusted with the responsibility to dispense justice, for which they are under a duty to ensure a timely trial, which duty may have been overlooked in some of the previous instances of adjournment where requests were granted mechanically and without due consideration,” she maintained. However, Justice Malick said the petitioner’s public shooting and injury at a political rally justified the grant of an adjournment for a reasonable time under the circumstances. “The right to defence cannot be struck out without considering all relevant factors, and the court must weigh the balance between a fair trial and the circumstances at hand,” Justice Malik said. Justice Kakar, in his dissenting note, observed that the case at hand was a classic case of delay on the part of the petitioner and of the trial court’s inability to conclude the lis within a reasonable time. “Record reveals that the suit was instituted in the year 2017, whereas the written statement was filed after a delay of about four years,” Justice Kakar observed, adding the interrogatories were made on March 16, 2022, and despite availing of 5 to 6 opportunities, the petitioner failed to respond to the same. “As per order sheet of April 26, 2022, answers to the interrogatories was ready and the draft was only required to be signed by the senior counsel, however, on next date of hearing, instead of answering the interrogatories in compliance of the trial court directions and previous under taking, once again objections were filed just to delay the proceedings,” he wrote, while pointing that “Such conduct on the part of petitioner was apparently wilful disobedient, Justice Kakar observed. The trial court, through its order of October 20, 2022, dismissed the petitioner’s objections to the interrogatories of the respondent and directed him to submit answers to those interrogatories. Later, through a subsequent order dated Nov 24, 2022, the trial court struck off the petitioner’s right of defence due to non-submission of answers to the interrogatories. In his suit filed in 2017, PM Shehbaz said Imran levelled baseless allegations against him. He sought a decree for the recovery of Rs10bn as compensation from the defendant for the publication of defamatory content. The defamation suit said Imran wrongly accused PM Shehbaz of offering Rs10bn to the latter through a common friend in exchange for withdrawing the Panama Papers case.

Mongolia has recovered a rare dinosaur skeleton and a trove of fossils illegally exported two decades ago, authorities said Wednesday, concluding years of efforts to return the palaeontological treasures. The collection includes a Tarbosaurus bataar skeleton, estimated to be more than 50 per cent intact, along with 28 groups of fossilised dinosaur remains originally found in Mongolia’s Gobi Desert, according to police. The bones had been illegally taken from Mongolia in 2006 “with the aim of making a profit”, said D. Munkhkhuyag, head of the police public relations department.

Following the lengthy process of returning the fossils, they arrived in the capital Ulaanbaatar on Thursday and will be housed in Mongolia’s new National Museum of Natural History, where they will be studied and eventually put on public display.

Mongolia has intensified efforts in recent years to recover dinosaur fossils smuggled abroad, as demand from private collectors and auction houses has fuelled an international black market in rare palaeontological specimens.

Secretary for Labour and Welfare Chris Sun said that the 12-year-old girl who fell to her death in Tai Koo Shing on Wednesday had been assessed by medical professionals as fit to return home from hospital following her mother's death earlier that day. Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Sun described the incident as a tragedy, adding that he felt very sad and extended his deepest condolences to the grieving family. The chain of events began on Wednesday morning, when the girl alerted police that her 48-year-old mother had been found lying on the podium deck of a residential block at 5 Tai Koo Shing Road. Officers pronounced the woman dead at the scene. It is understood the pair had argued over her studies earlier that day. Following her mother's death, Sun said the girl was taken to hospital for assessment, before she was sent home with her relatives. "The doctors, nurses and social workers all assessed the situation. At the time, they had to make a judgement. As I understand it, their judgement was that they could be allowed to go home. I can only say this much," he said. Hours after returning home, the daughter was found dead after falling from the same building. "Of course, everyone is very concerned about whether more could have been done. But first of all, I believe the doctors, nurses, and social workers are all professionals. They had to make a judgement," Sun said. "However, as for exactly what happened that day, I would ask everyone to let the relevant authorities, including the police, conduct a thorough investigation. At this moment, I think it is not appropriate to speculate too much." When asked about the father’s situation, Sun urged the public to give the family some space and said authorities would provide full assistance. The minister also revealed that the mother had been a social worker employed by the Social Welfare Department. Director of Social Welfare Edward To said the family was not an active case with the department, but confirmed that comprehensive emotional support would be provided, along with funeral arrangement assistance.
