The ex-judge also rejected the constitutional package terming it a reflection of the mind of law minister which, he added, is not beyond that of a civil judge’s. He said judiciary in Pakistan would become non-existent if the package is carried through. He rejected the package and called for restoration of judges through an executive order and also extension in the length of service of those deposed judges, who retired after November 3, matching with the duration they remained out of office on account of PCO.
Former president SCBA Hamid Khan, President LHCBA Anwar Kamal, Member Pakistan Bar Council Hafiz Abdul Rahman Ansari, former president LHCBA Ahmad Awais, secretary SCBA Amin Javed Chaudhry, former secretary SCBA Zulfiqar Ali Bokhari and chairman of the panel Muhammad Azhar Siddique were the other speakers at the seminar.
Hamid Khan laid stress on trying Musharraf for high treason as he did very grave crimes to the nation. He vowed to bring Musharraf back and take him to task even if he would leave the country or the rulers would avoid taking action against him. He said not only Musharraf but also every other who abetted his crimes, must be brought to book if the country needs to put the judicial system on the true lines of right and wrong. He also discarded stay of PCO judges with the deposed judges in the judiciary and said, such a move would amount to blending the right with the wrong which can never happen.
