According to ISPR, the trial of 9th May accused under military custody, has hereby been concluded under the relevant laws. All convicts retain the right to appeal and other legal recourses, as guaranteed by the Constitution and law.

It concluded by saying that the Nation, Government, and the Armed Forces remain steadfast in their commitment to upholding justice and ensuring that the inviolable writ of the state is maintained.

Since 1974 till recently, around 1,875 civilians are sentenced by the military courts, including 180 civilians during former prime minister Imran Khan's tenure of over four years.

Addressing today on Friday a press conference in Rawalpindi, ISPR Director General, Lt. Gen. Ahmed Sharif Chaudhary referring to narrative of Imran Khan led PTI 'False Flag operation' about 9th May 2023 attacks on military installations and buildings as the terrorists belong to the agencies and the army, and the army itself orchestrated the attacks under some massive conspiracy. He said that on 'False flag,' if we have sentenced our own people, belonging to our agencies under our laws (the Pakistan Army Act), then they should be happy, now they are worried', dg ISPR said.

On the question of legitimacy of military courts and questions related to civil supremacy and lack of transparency, he said, “Pakistan’s military courts have been operating for decades and have efficiently fulfilled all demands of justice.”

“The ICJ (International Court of Justice) has endorsed this whole process. Those accused in military courts have the right to a lawyer, they can present evidence and witnesses, go through cross-examination, and enjoy other legal rights. If punished, those criminals can petition the COAS in a court of appeal and also have the right to apply to high courts and the Supreme Court.”

Gen Chaudhry then said that all those involved in the May 9 riots should be punished accordingly. “Instead of equipping [young protesters] with education and constructive thinking, some people — for the sake of politics — poison their minds through propaganda.

“The real criminals are those giving impetus to this propaganda and that is why the process of justice will continue until all the planners of the May 9 violence, the real evil characters, are dealt with according to the law.”
