MULTAN: The Multan District Bar Association Saturday urged the government to establish a Judicial Council constitutionally on permanent basis instead of involving the Supreme Court.
Talking to The News, Multan DBA president Azimul Haq Pirzada said the SC should avoid heading a Judicial Commission because politicians would point fingers at judiciary if any verdict was announced against their wishes.
Pirzada said for his proposed Judicial Council, the government should take representatives from Pakistan Bar Council, Provincial Bar Council, bar associations and civil society to investigate corruption on permanent basis.
He said this constitutional body should be responsible for investigating corruption issues. Pirzada said the Pakistan Therik-e-Insaf (PTI) would spread controversy against superior judiciary if Judicial Commission announces a decision against the party wishes.
To a query on Terms of Reference on Judicial Commission, he said the DBA has constituted a special committee to discuss the ToRs, saying that the opposition’s TORs are needed to be amended.
