  1. Supreme Court and High Court Issue Reserved Verdicts in the Toshakhana Trial Case. In the Supreme Court and Islamabad High Court today, hearings were held regarding the Toshakhana trial cases. The Supreme Court has stopped Judge Humayoun Dilawar from giving a final decision until the issue of his eligibility to hear the case is resolved.

  2. Islamabad High Court today announced its reserved verdict and rejected the request to transfer the Toshakhana case filed by Chairman Tehreek-e-Insaf, Imran Khan. Imran Khan's legal team now has the option to challenge this decision in the Supreme Court.
  3. Islamabad High Court Issues Notice in Imran Khan's Right to Defense Case. In the Toshakhana case, Judge Humayoun Dilawar had taken away Imran Khan's right to defense, leading to a petition being filed in Islamabad High Court. Today, the High Court issued notices to the parties in its decision. High Court has given an extremely strange decision. On one hand, they issue notices on witness demand, and on the other hand, they have remanded but haven't [granted bail for] remand and have asked to provide final evidence. How is it possible that before decisions are made for our witnesses, we are required to present final evidence, and yet there is no stay once again?" Imran Khan's legal team's reaction.

  7. Verdicts Issued Today by Islamabad High Court Had Already Been Written Yesterday. The attempt to “match-fix” was caught in the verdicts issued today from Islamabad High Court. Chief Justice Amir Farooq had mentioned "tomorrow" in today's verdict, which is August 4, while today is August 4th.Was yesterday's verdict issued today only to prevent an appeal against this verdict since the Supreme Court is on vacation this week. This is a proof of a serious and blatant match-fixing.
  8. Despite court orders, the fascist government is giving a deaf ear to it. Shehryar Afridi was granted bail by all courts, but despite that, today he was arrested again under MPO-3 (Maintenance of Public Order) by the counter-terrorism court.
