Fresh Move to Oust Dissenting Judges

In its latest draconian move against the superior judiciary, Musharraf’s illegal ‘interim’ government has purported to retire some of the dissenting judges, The News International said Tuesday.

“Federal ministry of Law has issued the notification for retirement of 24 High Court judges who did not take oath under the Provisional Constitutional Order (PCO)”, says the newsflash.

“Those judges who stand retired as per the notification included 12 judges of Sindh High Court (SHC), 10 judges of the Lahore High Court (LHC) and two judges of Peshawar High Court (PHC).”
