The Sindh High Court's Sukkur Bench has banned the entry of “unrelated persons” into courtrooms for the next 20 days. This is part of efforts to prevent a possible Coronavirus contagion from spreading.
Only judges and legal representation will be allowed to be present in courtrooms. Applicants, petitioners and accused would have to be checked – and unrelated people would not be allowed entry.
Sukkur authorities have also been permitted to set up an isolation camp for pilgrims returning from Iran.
