Senator Faisal Vawda has submitted an apology to the Supreme Court of Pakistan in a contempt of court case.
Vawda, in his second written response to the court, expressed his utmost respect for the judiciary.
Vawda stated, “Following the court proceedings on June 5, I met with religious scholars to understand the role of a senator. I was advised to stand by justice, even if it is against my own kin.” In his written apology, Vawda included references from the Qur’an and Hadith, demonstrating his sincerity.
He requested the Supreme Court to withdraw the show-cause notice issued to him, stating, “In the light of Islamic teachings, I seek forgiveness with a sincere heart.
If my press conference has harmed the dignity of the judiciary, I unconditionally apologise. I leave myself at the mercy of the court and request the withdrawal of the show-cause notice in the contempt case.”
