On the request of PPP leader Babar Awan here on tuesday, the Supreme Court adjourned the contempt of court case proceedings against him till April 2.
The hearing was conducted under the two member SC bench occupied by Justice Aijaz Fazal  and Justice Athar Saeed.

The apex court was all set to frame contempt charge against former Federal Law Minister; but, he informed the court his counsel Ali Zafar is in lahore and will be leaving for India to make arrangements for the visit. He asked the court to indict him on contempt charge in presence of his counsel. ‘I do not demur at the indictment, if it is made today; however, I want it to be in the presence of my lawyer,’ he requested the court. Granting his plea, the court adjourned the further proceedings till April 2.
