Punjab Bar Council representation

Pronouncement regarding SCBA

Addressing a press conference Mumtaz Mustafa and senior members of the Bar council said that hastening the disposing of judges was equal to the burial of justice. The judiciary should give rulings on merit without making any haste. They said not even five percent judges are honest in lower courts, whereas the remarks of Lahore High Court Chief Justice Khawaja Muhammad Sharif suggest as if judges of Khilafat-e-Rashida have been appointed. They went on to say that Punjab Bar Council is representative of more than 80,000 advocates and Qazi Anwar, the president of Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA), is not the appropriate delegate of lawyers to decide their perspective on National Judicial Policy.[4]
