ISLAMABAD:
In an unprecedented move, the Supreme Court has ruled that Justice Qazi Faez Isa should not hear cases involving Prime Minister Imran Khan.
“The Hon Chief Justice of Pakistan, therefore, observed that in these circumstances it would not be proper for the Hon Judge to hear the matter considering that he had already filed a petition against the Prime Minister of Pakistan, in his personal capacity. Therefore, to uphold the principle of un-biasness and impartiality, it would be in the interest of justice that the Hon Judge should not hear matters involving the Prime Minister of Pakistan,” says a five-page written order of Chief Justice Gulzar Ahmed.
