Judgment text as reported

VS O. XI & O. XXV---Constitution of Pakistan, Art. 184(3)---Constitution of a 'Special Bench' to hear a suo motu case---Propriety and legality---Supreme Court Rules, 1980 neither permit nor envisage Special Benches---Constituting a Special Bench provides detractors an opportunity to allege that the bench was tailor-made to give a particular decision---For a decision to be credible, and acceptable, there must be an established adjudication process---When cases are not heard by regular benches and instead by specially constituted benches for no valid reason it undermines the integrity of the system, and may have serious repercussions.
