Earlier, Khan said that every judge must refrain from issuing remarks or decisions without hearing both sides, as judicial comments and rulings influence not only the case at hand but also future legal proceedings.

In his message to the nation while talking to lawyers, Imran Khan stated that judicial ethics demand impartiality during hearings and criticized Justice Musarrat Hilali for making alleged unilateral remarks regarding the May 9 incident without considering both perspectives.

Khan highlighted that no transparent commission or judicial inquiry has been formed regarding the May 9 events, and the authorities have failed to present any concrete evidence or CCTV footage related to the incident in court.
