    Yes, a petition was filed in Lahore High court in Pakistan on Thursday, 17th march, challenging the release of CIA security contractor Raymond Davis, who was let off Wednesday, 16th march, after paying compensation to the kin of the two people he had shot in January, a media report said.
   
   The challenge, which was filed by Barrister Iqbal Jafri, stated that the families of Faizan and Faheem were pressurized by the government into pardoning Davis and states that the pardoning this act is in violation of the law.
   
   The petitioner requested the court to invalidate the decision and direct the authorities to initiate proceedings against “those who brought about Davis’ release”.
