ISLAMABAD: Islamabad High Court (IHC) Chief Justice Minallah Thursday observed that he was surprised to see Hammad Saeed Dar Advocate among the group of violent lawyers, who had attacked the IHC.
He said Hammad Dar was very aggressive among the lawyers' mob. It was the IHC, which had given relief to Dar when he was kidnapped on January 2, he added.
The chief justice said it did not matter if 200 out of 6,000 lawyers were involved in the violent incident, which had disgraced the whole fraternity. He expressed these views while hearing the case regarding the disappearance of Hammad Dar Advocate.
The petitioner's lawyer, Abdul Rafay Advocate, said it was an unfortunate incident.
It may be mentioned that Hammad Dar's father Sufian Dar had approached the IHC when his son was disappeared on January 2.
