A division bench of the SHC comprising Chief Justice Musheer Alam Khan and Justice Imam Bux Baloch heard the petition on Tuesday. The court directed the respondents to submit their reply before the court at the next date of hearing.

The court has issued notices to Musharraf, Altaf Hussain, Dr Arbab Ghulam Rahim, former advisor to Chief Minister Sindh on Interior Affairs Waseem Akhtar, former Home Secretary Ghulam Mohtram, former Inspector General of Police Sindh Niaz Ahmed Siddiqui and others. The court adjourned the hearing for an indefinite period.
