The Supreme Court of Pakistan's Constitutional Bench heard argument yesterday in the military courts case. Dawn has a detailed account here. It is baffling that the court seems to have so little sense of urgency. Why can't it bite the bullet and decide the intra-court appeals? It's not a hard case. Whether or not the Anti-Terrorism Court gave reasons when sending civilian defendants into the military court system is a distraction and would only kick the can down the road fror another year.
