Justice Babar Sattar remarked these technical things will not be in this court’s proceedings.
\nCounsel Shah Khawar said it is our request case be shifted to some other court.
\nHe said the documents which were presented by prosecutor were not provided to us. These documents should have been provided to us before hand.
\nCounsel for SP city said it does not happen any where in the world that prosecutor presents record of witness himself. <\/p>\n
