Also, if Musharraf’s actions of 12 Oct 1999 are all illegal, then surely those judges who took the PCO oath in January 2000 are also illegal? Judges such as Ch. Iftikhar, Bhagwandas and Ramday. That’s something that some people miss in their animosity towards Musharraf alone.

I won’t even go into how Ch. Iftikhar and company went onto validate Musharraf’s military coup in May 2000 on the basis of “doctrine of necessity”.

Or how Ch. Iftikhar was one of two judges who visited the Aiwan-e-Sadr in June 2001 to “persuade” President Rafiq Tarrar to resign and make way for Musharraf to assume the Presidency.

Let alone how Ch. Iftikhar took the oath on the LFO-amended constitution in June 2005, when he took over as Chief Justice.

Or finally, how he was one of the 5 judges who again validated the LFO, 17th Amendment, two offices bill etc etc in a judgement in 2005.

Reza bhaijan. How could the EX CJ do such a thing.
