LAHORE: Jamatud Dawah says it has complete trust in the judicial system of the country.

“It is evident from the fact that the JuD has always sought justice through the same Pakistani courts of law. The arbitrary council established by the JuD, presided over by Ulema, merely provides arbitration services to consenting parties in the light of the Quran and Sunnah,” it says.

“The arbitrary council is not a parallel court and does not issue any kind of summons or seek money for arbitration,” the JuD claims.
