ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Senate Chairman expressed his discontent with the justice system. He said on Thursday that the case was filed under Article 6 but the suspect fled country.

Raza Rabbani was addressing to the first annual Youm-e-Shuhda-e-Sahafat conference in the capital. He complained that the law was applied in a different way on the common man.

“There are four to five standards to impose law in our society,” he said, adding that if the common man was caught on police check post during night time, he would be treated differently. He asked that how will the dual standards help promote culture of justice.
