Judge Babar Sattar of the IHC made rulings during a case involving the September arrests of PTI leaders Sheharyar Afridi and Shandana Gulzar.

Additionally, the federal capital of DC was served with a show-cause notice by the court, requiring him to respond by Monday.

Additionally, it had turned down the DC’s sincere apologies for disobeying the court orders.

Judge: “This was stupidity on your part. You issued 67 maintenance of public orders (MPO) for the detention of 970 days.” You will now have to deal with the fallout.

DC Islamabad declared, “Next week, I will announce the verdict.”

The deputy commissioner must be arrested and brought before the high court in this matter, per an order from the IGPs of Islamabad and all four provinces.

During the case hearing, Justice Babar Sattar indicted Jamil Zafar, the Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) operations, Superintendent Farooq Buttar, and Station House Officer (SHO) Nasir Manzoor.

Shehryar Afridi, the leader of the PTI, had his arrest warrants previously annulled by the IHC under the maintenance of public order (MPO) clause, and his immediate release was mandated.

In accordance with Section 3 of the MPO Ordinance, 1960, Afridi was initially taken into custody on May 16 from his home in Islamabad. Not long after being released from prison, on May 30, he was detained again under the same section.

In Afridi’s case, the court also accused three other people, including capital Deputy Commissioner (DC) Irfan Nawaz Memon, for contempt.

In addition to expressing their complete regret to the court, DC Memon and SSP Zafar entered not guilty pleas to the accusations. Additionally, SHO Naseer Manzoor and SP Farooq Buttar were charged by the court with contempt of court; both men refuted the allegations.

With the help of this new Instagram function, parents will have more control over what their kids do online.

New users between the ages of 13 and 15 will have their Teen Accounts enabled immediately, while current users in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia will be gradually transferred to the new accounts over the course of the following 60 days.

Important characteristics of teen accounts

Teen accounts are by default set to private, which limits the display of their posts to authorized followers and keeps non-followers from getting in touch with them.

Restrictions on Teen Messaging: To minimize unwanted encounters, teens are only able to message people they follow or already have a connection with.

Control of Sensitive Content: Tight settings will prevent exposure to potentially dangerous content, like advertisements for cosmetic procedures or violent content.

Parental Control: Guardians can keep an eye on their offspring’s internet behavior, such as direct messaging and content intake.

Positive Content: By allowing teenagers to research interests, like sports, music, or the arts, they can enhance their online experience.

Extra protection

Reminding teenagers to take breaks after 60 minutes of app use is part of the daily limit.

Sleep mode: To encourage sound sleep habits, automatically mute notifications between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m.

Using artificial intelligence to power age verification, underage individuals can be identified and moved to teen accounts.

In yesterday’s 92-run defeat against Markhors, Asif Ali, who is playing for the Dolphins under Saud Shakeel, scored a fast half-century.

Asif stated in an interview with a local news station that he wanted to do well enough throughout the competition to possibly earn a spot back on the national squad.

He also disclosed that, prior to making his international debut, he batted at number four in domestic cricket but was forced to settle for number six. The energetic batter had a new task because of the
in batting order.

Asif stated, “Going from No. 4 to No. 6 is not easy.” “It’s critical to train properly for your position in international cricket. It can be challenging to drop to a lower position at the international level if you’re used to playing higher up the order at home.

He talked candidly about the Dolphins’ defeat against the Markhorses as well, stating that given the pitch conditions, he would not have chosen to field first.

“Batting was challenging because the pitch favored bowlers in the latter parts of the game,” he remarked. Because of the early dampness, the Dolphins’ management decided to field first.

He then on, “If they had asked me, I would have told them to bat first and not fall for that.”

Report: Solar is expected to set new records this year.

In 2023, there was an expected 87% increase in growth. This year’s increase is 29% over the previous one, according to the research.

The cheapest source of electricity globally is solar power, and as such, it is expanding quicker than many anticipated, according to Euan Graham, an Ember electricity data analyst.

Ember estimates demonstrate the rapid growth of solar energy: in 2024 alone, new solar capacity will surpass the 540 GW of additional coal power added globally since 2010.

Expected to add 334 GW, or 56 percent of the global total in 2024, China continues to lead the globe in this industry.

According to the survey, it is followed by the US, India, Germany, and Brazil. These five nations will account for 75% of the new solar capacity in 2024.

According to the research, maintaining the sector’s growth required grid capacity and battery storage.

“Providing enough grid capacity and developing battery storage is critical for handling electricity distribution and supporting solar outside of peak sunlight hours as solar becomes more inexpensive and accessible,” the statement stated.

“Solar power might continue to surpass forecasts for the remainder of the decade if these issues are resolved and development is sustained.”
