The advocate general requested additional time, stating that the missing persons were not in government custody. "Had they been in our possession, we would have presented them," he said. Justice Ejaz remarked that a full bench would be constituted to hear the case if required.
Justice Arshad Ali, while hearing the case, questioned the authorities' failure to register an FIR, adding that they had the authority to do so.
The court later adjourned the hearing and issued a directive for the recovery of all five individuals, including the woman from Oman.
