PCO judges have to go, says Wajih

LAHORE — Judges’ struggle will be deemed a failure if judges who took oath under the Provisional Constitution Order retain their positions even after the restoration of pre-November 3 judges, a former judge of the Supreme Court says.
Justice (Retd) Wajihuddin Ahmad said while addressing Faisalabad Bar Association there were rumours the government was planning to limit through legislation the tenure of the deposed chief justice of Pakistan to three years. He said the lawyers would not accept any such law. He claimed that deposed CJ Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry had been offered the governorship of Balochistan and top slot of the International Court of Justice for budging from his position for the restoration of the judiciary. Such offers would not lure Justice Iftikhar who would continue his struggle to achieve the goal, he said.
