The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Monday started hearing the memogate scandal case which has created waves in Pakistan’s politics.
During the course of hearing, Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry scolded Attorney General Maulvi Anwarul Haq over former federal minister and Pakistan Peoples Party leader Babar Awan’s press conference in which he had criticized court’s decision on formulating a commission to investigate memo scandal.
“Court orders were reticulated in former minister’s press conference. Was it governmental action or minister’s individual act? What is government’s point of view on it?” the CJP asked the AG.
He ordered the AG to show Awan’s press conference in the court room, besides submitting federation’s written statement on the minister’s act.

Making a mockery of the law has become second nature to our politicians.

They put civil servants through their paces if they refuse to accept an illegal order.

Its this supreme court which is making a mockery of law.
Courts run on morality which this court has lost.

  Mr Cheema,
  
  I have been reading your comments. Sadly, it seems that you do not have a clear appraisal of the judicial process. I belive a fellow reader has previously commented to the effect that there was some thing a miss.
  
  Kind regards

There is no question that Babar Awan is an idiot with a fake Ph.D. and our beloved Chief Justice acts more like Thana Muharar Purani Anarkali. Let us promote this Head Constable to Chief Head Constable.
