Present judiciary a bigger threat to democracy than the military

Present judiciary reminiscent of US McCarthy era

Imran Khan’s Contempt Case; Impact of D.I. Khan Jailbreak on Vimeo

Although I support IK, I have always disagreed with him on two things

  • Taliban war is not our war
  • The judiciary is free and independent. The CJ was controversial from day 1 and recent events have vindicated Musharraf and I am not saying it merely because IK is on the receiving end now. I have disputed IK’s naive view many times on this forum. Sadly it has taken five years for Imran Khan to realize this. The fact is the reference filed by Musharraf against CJ Iftikhar Ch. was mainly about his abuse of office to assist his son Dr. Arsalan Iftikhar.

Some of Imran Khan’s detractors have called him “Im the Dim” (naive and clueless) while others refer to him as “Taliban Khan” (allied with the Taliban). Only time will tell whether and which of these monikers fit IK. It could be former, latter or neither.
