Re: Pakistan's top judge is suspended
CJ was summoned to army house where he met President Musharaf who was wearing his army uniform. He was asked to explain the charges against him and while he was still in army house, Justice Javaid Iqbal took oath as acting CJ. (Geo News)
It appears Musharaf wanted to show the poor judge, who is the boss.
Ex-President Lahore Bar Association Hamid Khan said on Geo news, "Lot of corruption has been going on in Judiciary and Bar association has been up in arms about it, but, for first time in 28 years a reference has been filed against a judge in Judcial Bar on charges that are laughable compared to corruption charges against judges that are still working."
Ex-Chief Justice Wajihuddin on Geo-news, "Described it as worst incident in judicial history of Pakistan, where chief justice of Pakistan was summoned in army house and asked to explain his conduct b4 an army chief."
Guess, Chief Justice, just went too far when he took sou moto notice of disappearences in Pakistan.
