Did the system fail for the first time?
No
It failed when NAB Judge Bashir was going to convict Nawaz Sharif, his daughter Maryam Nawaz and his son in law; Capetian Rtd Safdar
It once again failed when they were going to imprison Hanif Abbassi
So there is nothing to get surprised
It happens in a country like Pakistan
God forbid until when the system will keep on failing?
