The legal team of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Friday demanded the resignation of the Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa and the Chief Justice of Islamabad High Court Aamer Farooq, stating that the judges’ letter has proven that the justice system has become paralysed.
The demand by the former ruling party comes amid a controversy whipped up by a letter penned by six IHC judges to the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC).
In the missive, the judges revealed the coercive tactics employed by intelligence agencies to influence judges—revelations that sent shockwaves across the legal and political landscape.
