What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Federal Constitutional Court overturned a ruling made by the Islamabad High Court concerning a workplace harassment case at the National Bank of Pakistan. The case originated in 2012, where Nadia Sarwar alleged harassment at the bank. After the President reduced penalties for officials to censure, the Islamabad High Court had restored the original penalties, a verdict the Federal Constitutional Court subsequently overturned and restored the President's order. The court interpreted the pre-2022 amendment, which required a sexual element for workplace allegations.
