A serving judge has allegedly confessed to accepting Rs5 million in bribe to release Shoaib Ahmad Shaikh in the Axact fake degree scandal case.

Latest reports suggest that Additional District and Sessions Judge Pervais ul Qadir Memon has allegedly admitted in front of the court that he received 5 million rupees in return for acquitting Bol TV’s CEO Shoaib Ahmad in the Axact case.

IHC’s show-cause notice issued to the judge read that he “committed an act of corruption by receiving illegal gratification to the tune of Rs5 million for acquittal of accused [Shoaib Ahmed Sheikh] through judgment dated 31.10.2016”.

  1. Judges, politicians, businessmen, media men, bureaucrats, police, judges and the people in general, majority are all morally and ethically stunted and compromised by decades of perversion of rule of law and justice by the rulers. Can one really expect anything other than what you witness day after day. When policing and justice have been turned in to lucrative and profitable commodities, it becomes hard to resit enriching yourself when you know there is no accountability. It all starts with the nature of governance at the top and ends with common behaviour in society. When the governance is rotten, everything rots with it.

  2. I don’t follow or write DONE in comments for this DIPLOMA MILL looter who embezzled billions of dollars.
