The federal government has decided to challenge the ordinance of the Supreme Court concerning the training of a full court in the case of the court involving the additional judicial registrar Nazar Abbas.
The Attorney General Mansoor Usman Awan informed the constitutional bench of the government’s position during a hearing on a customs regulation case.
The government plans to challenge the decision, considering it unconstitutional, reported Express News.
The decision of the Supreme Court in the outrage case said that Nazar Abbas had not deliberately committed an outrage in the court.
A bench of two members, including judge Mansoor Ali Shah and judge Aqeel Abbasi, withdrew the opinion of evidence against Nazar Abbas, referring to the case to the chief judge of Pakistan.
The bench underlined the violations of the procedure by the Committee of Practice and Procedure of the Supreme Court and the Constitutional Committee of Judges, which had administratively reallocated cases contrary to judicial orders.
The decision said that these committees did not have the power to overcome judicial decisions. The bench recommended that the chief judge to form a full court to determine whether the actions of these committees were an outrage in the court.
The court also noted that the question has such importance that it justifies deliberation by all the judges of the Supreme Court. This approach, supported the bench, would ensure institutional integrity and finality in the resolution of the issue.
The decision follows the concerns concerning administrative interference in the judicial processes, the court emphasizing similar previous ones where larger benches were trained to resolve questions of this magnitude.
