The Islamabad High Court (IHC) issued notices regarding early hearing requests for sentence suspension pleas filed by human rights lawyers Imaan Zainab Mazari-Hazir and Hadi Ali Chatha. The couple, sentenced to 17 years for "cyber terrorism" and "glorification of an offence" under the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA), remains in jail following a 2025 conviction linked to social media posts. The IHC previously raised procedural objections regarding the non-submission of certified Supreme Court orders. The court eventually adjourned the matter until after Eidul Azha, as legal counsel continues to advocate for the suspension of sentences pending the resolution of their criminal appeals.
