Lahore: The Lahore High Court has sought a response from the federal government regarding the admissibility of the petition against Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif.
In the Lahore High Court, a contempt of court petition was heard on behalf of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for calling judges black sheep. The court sought a response from the federal government regarding the admissibility of the contempt petition against the prime minister.
Justice Waheed Khan asked the Additional Attorney General to tell whether this application is admissible or not, to which the Attorney General replied that the Supreme Court had raised the same question yesterday.
The lawyer of the federal government said that the Attorney General had made it clear to the Supreme Court that the Prime Minister did not say this about the current judges, on which the court inquired whether you have a written order. The counsel for the federal government replied that the written order has not yet been received from the Supreme Court.
In the petition for contempt of court against Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, a position has been taken that the Prime Minister called the judiciary black sheep in his speech on May 28. This statement is tantamount to undermining the honesty and independence of the judiciary and insulting the court. Legal action should be initiated against Shahbaz Sharif on the basis of such insulting words
