Justice Musheer Alam presiding over the case asked if any of the petitioners was directly affected due to the case of extrajudicial killing to which the lawyer of the plaintiff answered that the father of slain Naqeebullah Mehsud was also one of the petitioners.

To this the lawyer representing the aggrieved party rebutted that the judges should be wary of the remarks they passed in court as they could have far-reaching effects and may influence proceedings elsewhere.
