Honourable Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the USA, I am sure that in the United States of America you are not used to exercising your suo motto powers because you must be satisfied with the rule of law and the institutions of state responsible for implementing the law.
But cant you just privately object to how the Obama administration is unlawfully forcing Pakistan to release and hand over an American who killed two Pakistanis in broad daylight, that too not on the American soil but on the soil of another sovereign state, Pakistan?
Your lordship must have remembered that you and your fellow judges, jurists and lawyers across America appreciated the role of Pakistan Chief Justice, Iftikhar Chaudhry, and awarded him medals when he was invited to America.
The words of felicitation included that Justice Chaudhry withstood all kind of pressure and didnt budge. Your honour, dont you think Pakistans withstanding your governments pressure is wise and in accordance with the international law for a sovereign state?
What would have been your and your governments reactions if a similar kind of crime was committed by a Pakistani national on the American soil?
