  1. How dare the AG did not show-up immediately when summoned by the HE His Lordship, The Lawyer King, The Noblest of All, The Most Sincere, The Only Concerned in His Majesty's court. AG should leave everything and be at His Majesty's disposal for verbal thrashing and in-person public insults.

  2. Restoration Notification of March 2009 was unconstitutional and without lawful authority. As such, present SC has no legal authority. Nobody should appear before this group of corrupt people whose only job is to mint money by squeezing people like Malik Riaz. Down with Chaudhry Double PCO!!!

  3. Somehow the other, we are quickly moving towards a Judicial Martial Law. It is true that independent judiciery is an importany pillar of the state but it is also of great importance that the others pillars remain intact and are not taken over by this pillar. Judiciery might be very good but so are the other elements of society. Likewise Parliament, media and military should also understand its limits.
