ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court (SC) on Tuesday adjourned hearing of a case against acquittal of accused by the Sindh High Court (SHC) in American journalist Daniel Pearl murder case till Wednesday. A three-member bench of the apex court headed by Justice Mushir Alam and comprising Justice Sardar Tariq Masood and Justice Yahya Afridi heard the appeals, filed by the Sindh government and Pearl’s parents, challenging the acquittal of the previously convicted men by the SHC. The petitioners challenged the April 02 high court verdict that overturned the sentences of four convicts in the case.
KARACHI: Sindh High Court (SHC) on Thursday ordered the release of a British-born militant convicted of murdering American journalist Daniel Pearl who was kidnapped and beheaded in Karachi in 2002.
The decision by Sindh High Court comes months after it sparked outrage for overturning the murder conviction and death sentence of Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, and acquitted three other men connected to the case.
An appeal against the acquittals which is ongoing in Supreme Court had effectively halted their release, but defence lawyers argued against their continued detention in Karachi.
The court has found there is “no valid reason for depriving them of their freedom,” said Mahmood Sheikh, who is representing Sheikh and his co-defendants.

The Sindh government will not release Omar Sheikh and three others accused in the kidnapping and murder of US journalist Daniel Pearl in view of a Supreme Court order despite a judgment of the Sindh High Court (SHC), which asked it to release them.
An official said that the provincial government believes that the Supreme Court’s order with regard to the Daniel Pearl case accused is still in the field.
A three-judge bench led by Justice Mushir Alam on September 28 noted that till the next date of hearing, Omar Sheikh, Fahad Nasim Ahmed, Syed Salman Saqib and Sheikh Adil shall not be released. It had issued the order while hearing appeals against the SHC’s April 2 order in the Pearl case. The official said the apex court order has not been specifically recalled.
