title: "Supreme Court Registrar's Office refuses to accept petition against 27th Amendment"
description: "Most outlets reported that the Supreme Court Registrar’s Office declined to receive a petition challenging the 27th Constitutional Amendment, explaining that such petitions should be filed with the Federal Constitutional Court. The framing was largely consistent across the excerpts, with slight variations in wording — for instance, 24 News HD referred to the action as “declines to accept,” while Associated Press of Pakistan used “refused to entertain.” The Business Recorder added context by noting the petitioner was a former judge. No outlet provided additional claims beyond the Registrar’s stated rationale."
