A chaotic hearing in Pakistan's Supreme Court

The News International has this account of today's lively proceedings in the case challenging the trial of May 9 civilian protesters in Pakistan's military courts. Among other things, the bench was reduced from seven judges to six after the government's counsel, who had previously expressed no objection to the participation of one of the original judges, changed his position. The remaining judges were not pleased. The hearing resumes on Tuesday.

A further report, with a link to the court's order regarding the recusal of a justice and the latest reconstitution of the bench, can be found here.
