Attorney Ali Butter urged the court to begin the contempt of court action.
The petitioner’s attorney’s application was questioned by the court. He retorted that these figures made various claims about the courts on social media.

Despite the petitioner being from Lahore, the judge questioned why Islamabad was chosen.
The judge stated, “Tell the petitioner that there are courts in Lahore.”
