A hearing that was scheduled to take place Thursday was postponed to Friday due to other hearings taking much of the day. The ISI was ordered to bring seven that it was accused of holding since 2010 and to explain why four other men died while detained. The lawyer for the ISI, who was present, did not bring the men however.
Rohaifa Bibi is taking on the ISI due to the death of her son, Abdul Saboor. Few people actually take on the ISI due to its reputation and no one from the agency has ever been put on trial. The involvement of the Supreme Court could change this. The Court ordered the ISI to explain why the 11 were arrested and why 4 of them died.
