Pakistani bureaucrat: an SSP from Special Branch Peshawar is getting a hair transplant in a private clinic, and they are playing live music for him. LMAO.

BREAKING: Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Yahya Afridi has turned down request of CJ Islamabad High Court to convene meeting of Judicial Commission of Pakistan to transfer 5 judges of IHC. CJP has issued order in writing. However Secretary can still call mtg if majority of members approve. CJP writes: “it must also be borne in mind that permitting such transfers would set an undesirable and potentially far-reaching precedent, effectively normalising the treatment of Judges as administratively interchangeable or disposable. Such an approach would carry serious implications for the institutional integrity of the judiciary, while also eroding public confidence in its independence and stability. More importantly, the proposed transfers, if allowed, would in substance assume a punitive character vis-à-vis the transferred Judges: an outcome that finds no sanction anywhere in the constitutional scheme governing the superior judiciary, is wholly alien to the purpose of Article 200 of the Constitution, and runs contrary to the foundational principles of judicial independence and security of tenure. For the foregoing reasons, the Requisition for convening a meeting of the Commission for the purpose of transfer of the concerned Judges of the Islamabad High Court, respectfully, cannot be acceded to by the undersigned.”
