Attorney General of Pakistan Irfan Qadir said on Thursday that judiciary was not above the law and constitution of Pakistan, adding that striking down the newly enacted contempt of court law 2012 would bring crisis in the country.
Talking to media persons outside the Supreme Court, AG Irfan Qadir said that the parliament would consider the recommendations of the SC pertaining to contempt of court law 2012.
“The SC may give some good recommendations pertaining to contempt of court law 2012, but the parliament is not bound to implement on the court’s recommendations, however it may consider them.” said Irfan Qadir.
He said that dignity of the court did not increase by contempt of court litigations but wrong judgments of the court might fracture its dignity.
