The commission observed that this case brought to the fore interdependence and permeability of fundamental rights. The commission maintained that the reliance of the Respondent on Rules of the Framework of Quality Control Review (QCR) Program 2015 is untenable when juxtaposed with Article 8 of the Constitution and Section 25 of the Right of Access to Information Act 2017 as these Rules are in contravention to Article 10A which states that “For the determination of his civil rights and obligations or in any criminal charge against him a person shall be entitled to a fair trial and due process”.
