IHC moved over delay in presidential nod for judicial appointments
A writ petition was filed in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) challenging President Asif Ali Zardari’s delay in assenting to a summary from Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif regarding judicial appointments. The petition, led by advocate Luqman Zafar Chaudhary, argues the delay violates constitutional provisions and disrupts judicial administration, citing specific recommendations by the Judicial Commission of Pakistan (JCP) under Articles 175A and 48 of the Constitution.
