In October of last year, on the orders of the Supreme Court, a judicial commission was formed and directed to compile and present its report within two months. But that deadline came and went with nothing substantive having been produced.
Officials assisting the one-man commission of the Peshawar High Court judge, Justice Mohammad Ibrahim Khan, have said that the delay was caused by the unavailability of the officers, who were to be interviewed.
From October of last year till present day, the commission has recorded the statements of 107 witnesses, including the former corps commander Peshawar, former home secretary, former inspector general and the families of the deceased.
The parents of the martyrs had been requesting a thorough investigation into the attack and to hold officials responsible for any security lapse that may have taken place on December 2014 when terrorists attacked and killed over 140 children and teachers at the Army Public School in Peshawar . Finally, last year the chief justice of the Supreme Court gave in to their demands and took suo moto notice of the incident and ordered the formation of a judicial commission.
It is still unclear when the final report will be completed and made public.
