Islamabad: The Supreme Court summoned Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Wednesday to brief it on the progress made in the 2014 Army Public School (APS) attack case, which continues to haunt the victims' families, loved ones, and the general public.

At around 10 a.m., a three-judge bench led by Chief Justice Gulzar Ahmed and including Justices Qazi Mohammad Amin Ahmed and Justice Ijazul Ahsan summoned Pakistan's Prime Minister. Imran Khan arrived at the court just before noon, about two hours later. The court was hearing the case of the APS attack, in which terrorists from the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) stormed the Army Public School on Warsak Road in Peshawar on December 16, 2014, killing 147 people, including 132 children.

The Prime Minister, along with a number of lawyers, security personnel, families of APS attack victims, and PTI ministers, including Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed and Information Minister 1Fawad Chaudhry, were present in courtroom No. 1. Imran Khan was questioned about his government's progress in the case, with the bench expressing serious reservations about the government's recent ceasefire agreement with the TTP, which claimed responsibility for the school attack.
