Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan expressed concern about the idea to appoint ad hoc judges at the top court on Tuesday, stating that “there is a genuine apprehension the move is aimed at PTI’s reserved seats judgment and its standing as a party”.
“The move to appoint ad-hoc judges and that too four judges at once and during vacation, is uncalled-for and unprecedented,” PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan said on X (previously Twitter) to express his skepticism over the plan.
The CJP Qazi Faez Isa’s nomination of four judges as ad hoc judges in the Supreme Court—Justice (retd) Mushir Alam, Justice (retd) Maqbool Baqir, Justice (retd) Mazhar Alam Miankhel, and Justice (retd) Sardar Tariq Masood—alarmed the party created by Imran Khan.
