PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Khan on Tuesday called upon the judiciary to ensure speedy justice, asking how long the courts would wait for “wonder boys and supermen”.
Addressing the media at the Taj Marble Factory checkpoint, Barrister Gohar said that efforts were made to meet the Chief Justice of Pakistan. However, the meeting could not take place due to his busy schedule.
He further added that they waited for nearly three hours. He further emphasised that meeting the PTI founder is their constitutional and legal right.
