Supreme Court of Pakistan
International News: The decision allowing Pakistan to prosecute ordinary citizens in military courts is not just a legal change, but a major change in the democratic structure of the country. This decision can have far -reaching and dangerous effects - including suppression of political opposition, violation of human rights and a deep crisis on the credibility of justice system.
After this decision, the Pakistan Army has come to the legal strength to have any political activist, journalist, or ordinary citizen who oppose the policies of the army - can be directly present in the military court. This is the biggest threat to opposition parties, especially Imran Khan's PTI, whose supporters have already been taken strict action.
The method of hearing in military courts is completely different from the common courts. There is neither transparency, nor open hearing, nor freedom of reporting to media. In such a situation, the expectation of fair hearing for ordinary citizens is almost over.
Human rights organizations have already started criticizing this decision. They are afraid that Pakistan has now joined the list of countries where the judicial system is completely under power.
This decision has also hurt the credibility of the Supreme Court of Pakistan. The same court gives two opposite decisions in a few months indicate that the judiciary is also under pressure from power. This may lead to the trust of common people in the courts.
This decision has strengthened the status of General Aseem Munir. Now he has become a decisive force suppressing political opposition, not just the head of the army. This will further increase the interference of the army in politics.
In the view of Western countries and human rights institutions, this decision pushes Pakistan towards a dictatorial system. This can also affect foreign investment, financial assistance and international diplomatic relations.
This decision is not only a turn of the justice system, but a decisive turn for Pakistan's democracy. It will now be very important to see what effect this decision has on the general public, political parties and the international situation of Pakistan in the coming months.
