Karachi, May 22 : Deposed Pakistan Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry has praised the media and the civil society for their support to the lawyers’ movement to have the sacked judges restored.
In his telephonic address to a joint meeting of the Sindh High Court Bar, Karachi Bar and Malir Bar associations, The News quoted Chaudhry as saying that the judiciary had always been handled roughly in Pakistan, and therefore, no praise was enough for the judges who had refused to take oath under the Provisional Constitutional Order issued under the directions of then President General Pervez Musharraf.
