ISLAMABAD – The Supreme Court of Pakistan Wednesday noted that the Sindh government case about kidnapping and killing of Daniel Pearl, Bureau Chief of Wall Street Journal in Pakistan, seems to be weak, as there are many loopholes in it.
A three-member bench of the apex court headed by Justice Mushir Alam conducted hearing of the appeals of Sindh government and the parents of Daniel Pearl against the SHC verdict to acquit the alleged murderers of Daniel Pearl. During the hearing, Justice Sardar Tariq Masood remarked that neither Mrs Pearl (Marianne) provided any evidence about the emails nor she came forward. He told the Sindh government prosecutor Farooq H Naek, “Sorry your (prosecution) case seems week.”
