ISLAMABAD: The Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP), Yahya Afridi, has received a complaint from the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) alleging that the judiciary is being ridiculed and exploited for political ends.
“The legal system as a whole has been made fun of. At a press conference after the meeting with the CJP, PTI Secretary-General Salman Akram Raja said, “We [told] the CJP that the judiciary was being used as a tool [politically].”
The press conference of the previous ruling party takes place as the chief justice meets with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to discuss the agenda for the next meeting of the National Judicial Policymaking Committee (NJPMC).
