Islamabad High Court Orders Pakistan Govt to Form Commission Within 30 Days to Probe Blasphemy Law Misuse, PTI Senate Disputes in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

The Islamabad High Court has directed the federal government of Pakistan to establish a commission within 30 days to investigate allegations of misuse of the country's blasphemy laws. This order follows appeals from hundreds of families claiming that young people have been entrapped in online blasphemy cases. The court's directive aims to address concerns over potential abuse of these laws and ensure thorough inquiry. Meanwhile, political developments within Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) have surfaced, including internal disagreements related to the Senate elections in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. PTI's political committee has confirmed candidates for uncontested Senate seats in the province, with some disgruntled candidates deciding to withdraw their nominations. The party's core and political committees have held meetings to discuss these issues and the performance of provincial organizations.
