Defense Minister Khawaja Asif has said that the Chief Justice says that the government or the parliament cannot dictate the judiciary.
The constitution was born from the womb of the parliament and the judiciary should not dictate to us. Speaking in the National Assembly, he said that the Cabinet formed a commission on audio leaks in which senior judges were placed, but the Chief Justice stopped it from working.
We did not include the Chief Justice in it because The audios included the cheering of the Chief Justice himself, hoping that the Chief Justice would stay away from the commission so that justice could be done.
The Chief Justice should separate from the bench on the Audio Leaks Commission.
He said that there is an impression that these audios were obtained by tapping the phone, but this is not the case, now one can hack someone’s phone while sitting in the UK, there is no need to tap anyone’s phone.
Khawaja Asif said that Saqib Nisar’s son was exposed while dealing with crores of rupees while giving election tickets and that the election was held. No, I don’t know whether the money was returned or not,
who is himself involved in this case is applying to the court against the AudioLeaks Commission. The Defense Minister said that we want to end the impression of a one-man show.
The Supreme Court Procedure Bill was stopped before it was approved. The government or the parliament cannot dictate the judiciary. Khawaja Asif said that under the constitution, no institution can dictate another institution and it also applies to the judiciary,
the judiciary cannot dictate the parliament, the parliament is supreme, the constitution was born from its womb, we were told that If you do not dictate, the judiciary should not dictate to other institutions.
He said that he made the most senior judge after the Chief Justice as the head of the Audio Leaks Commission, but he was offensive to the Chief Justice. Some people can do this kind of two numbers,
but I have not seen such two numbers that you are sitting on the biggest chair of justice and how can you listen to the case in which you are involved? These traditions are not something to be proud of,
but the architet of these traditions will also be shameful for the generations to come. He further said that there have been such Chief Justices in the history of this country that perhaps their generations are ashamed to reveal their parentage.
