The Supreme Court on Wednesday issued a judgment reviewing the meaning and scope of the term 'terrorism' as defined in the Anti Terrorism Act, 1997 and recommended that Parliament bring changes to the current understanding of the term, which is "too wide".
The 59-page judgment was authored by Chief Justice of Pakistan Asif Saeed Khosa.
