Actor Sami Khan said the hanging of convict Zahir Jaffer in the Noor Mukadam case is a test for the country’s justice system.
Sami Khan, in a social media post, wrote that the court’s verdict against Zahir Jaffer marks the beginning of power games. He said that justice will not be served until the convict is hanged.
“Power games begin now,” he wrote. “He was convicted but justice won’t be served until he is hanged. So, the test of (the) justice system is still going on.”
