Islamabad (Staff Report/Agencies): Supreme Court judge Justice Qazi Faez Isa has requested Chief Justice of Pakistan (CPJ) Asif Saeed Khosa, who is also head of the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC), to make his reply public as the allegations against him are known in the public space.
According to sources, Justice Isa has moved two applications at the SJC. The first requests the SJC to make his reply public and the second, asks the council to share evidentiary sources used to draft the reference against him.
On July2, a five-member SJC bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Asif Saeed Khosa and comprising Justice Gulzar Ahmed, Justice Sheikh Azmat Saeed, Singh High Court (SHC) Chief Justice Ahmed Ali M Shaikh and the Peshawar High Court (PHC) Chief Justice Waqar Ahmed Seth heard the references against Justice Faez Isa for allegedly possessing properties in the United Kingdom.

On June 15, the same bench held the first hearing of the references.
