Statement issued by Hon.Chief Justice of Pakistan Mr.Justice Iftikhar Moham
2007-11-06 19:27:00 I haven’t been able to check the authenticity of this statement, but its substance is consistent with the stand that has been taken by the non-oath-taking judges. Interestingly, today the eight-member full court of the Supreme Court declared the seven-judge decision against the declaration of emergency as null and void: The full court ruled that the ...

2007-09-29 11:12:00 When prime minister Shaukat Aziz, the whole cabinet, and the lotas like Shiekh Rashid, Ijaz ul Haq, Shuaat Hussain, Pervez Elahi were standing on the head of chief election commission to ensure that the nomination papers of General Pervez Musharraf get accepted without any hindrance, police were applying batons, tear gas and other evil measures against lawyers, media and political workers outside the election commission building and in front of Supreme Court.As was expected Election Commission approved the general's papers, and Dr. Sher Afgun said that the statement of president regarding shedding the uniform is no longer valid.

Fazl-ur-Rehman : Next Prime Minister ?
2007-09-21 17:29:00 APDM just announced that they will present their resignations from National and Provincial Assemblies on 29th of September. In the meeting of APDM, held in Islamabad, all the leaders of opposition were present and looked composed, but Maulana Fazl-ur-Rehman was not present and is in Saudia Arabia.When TV channels contacted him about this, he said that he doesnt know about resignations and he is not ready for that. Reports are that he is in KSA to convince Nawaz Sharif to accept him as the next prime minister of Pakistan. He has also done deal with Musharraf, as the deal with Benazir is going awry, because Benazir's price is bit high, while Maulana comes lots cheaper than her.Opposition has been dented by Benazir and Fazl-ur-Rehman for 7 years now, and this decision without him is sure to create some unique ripples, and the time has come, when nation will perhaps know that who stands exactly where.

Chief Justice of Pakistan Case: A Constitutional Deja Vu?
2007-07-14 06:29:00 Guest post by Athar Osama Adil Najam’s post on judicial assertiveness the other day sheds light on a very interesting - and important - aspect of the current judicial crisis in Pakistan. What are the limits of Judicial activism or - to use Adil’s words - assertiveness? This is not something new to the world - or even to Pakistan’s history. Every country that has attempted to establish rule of law and constitution has struggled with trying to find a balance between what can (and cannot) a judge do. In America, where constitutionalism is much more advanced than in Pakistan, the debate has moved to a higher plane in the famous tussle between those who believe in strictly interpretting the constitution and those that only appear to do so. Each side claims that it is interpretting the constitution (or interpretting the original intent of the framers) and accuses the other of legislating from the bench. (more…)
