Islamabad: Islamabad Bar Association (IBA) has announced to boycott court’s proceedings for not providing opportunity to Imaan Mazari and Hadi Ali Chatha to present their defence in controversial tweet case.

It has been said in the press release that lawyers will boycott court’s proceedings today. IBA will go on strike on illegal and unconstitutional act.

Bar said it is their demand Imaan Mazari and Hadi Ali Chatha be provided opportunity to express their stance.
