00:00I would like to present the case of the biggest court in Pakistan to you.
00:03The case is that the Chief Justice of Pakistan used to make a bench
00:07for any case that would be heard in the Supreme Court.
00:09Let's keep the legal case brief again.
00:11It is called Practice and Procedure Act.
00:13After that, the Chief Justice of Pakistan and the two senior judges
00:17will form a committee on these three judges and they will make benches.
00:21In this, Mansoor Ali Shah Sahib, apart from Fahisa Sahib,
00:24Mansoor Ali Shah Sahib and Muneeb Akhtar Sahib came.
00:26Things got a little bad between them.
00:28After that, it happened and it seemed that Mansoor Sahib and Muneeb Akhtar Sahib
00:32are on one side and Fahisa Sahib is on the other side.
00:34After that, the President of Pakistan issued an ordinance
00:36that this committee will change its form.
00:38There will be a Chief Justice in it.
00:40Then there will be other senior judges,
00:42that is, Mansoor Ali Shah Sahib in this case.
00:44And whoever will be the third judge,
00:46that Chief Justice can make anyone of his choice.
00:48This ordinance came.
00:49After a while, Qazi Fahisa Sahib formed a new committee
00:51that I, Mansoor Ali Shah Sahib and Ameen Uddin Khan Sahib,
00:54who are the fifth senior most judges.
00:56Not Muneeb Sahib, not Yahya Sahib,
00:58but Ameen Uddin Khan Sahib.
01:00When this happened and the committee was discussed,
01:02Mansoor Ali Shah Sahib did not come to that discussion.
01:04Then Mansoor Ali Shah Sahib wrote a letter to Qazi Fahisa Sahib
01:06whose summary was that all this is very disappointing
01:09and I will not become a member of this committee
01:12until Muneeb Akhtar Sahib does not become a member of this committee.
01:15Today, Fahisa Sahib replied to this and published that letter.
01:18Now you see the content of that letter.
01:20Qazi Fahisa Sahib replied to Chief Justice Qazi Fahisa's letter
01:23to Justice Mansoor Ali Shah Sahib.
01:25And he spoke very strictly and directly.
01:27He addressed Mansoor Ali Shah Sahib and said
01:31that your letter was written to me and Justice Ameen Uddin Khan.
01:34Before us, the journalists had received it.
01:36He complained that he had written it to us,
01:38but before us, it had become the adornment of the media.
01:40Now you see what Qazi Sahib is saying to Mansoor Ali Shah Sahib
01:43that Justice Muneeb Akhtar Sahib,
01:45whom you strongly support,
01:47opposed this act.
01:49He is talking about the Practice and Procedure Act.
01:52When this was challenged in the court,
01:54Mansoor Shah Sahib supported it,
01:56and Muneeb Akhtar Sahib opposed it.
01:58So here he is referring to him and saying that
02:00Muneeb Akhtar Sahib, whom you strongly support,
02:02had previously opposed this act.
02:04Then Qazi Fahisa Sahib says that
02:06Justice Muneeb was appointed without fail
02:09in the special benches of the previous Chief Justice.
02:12Qazi Sahib is saying this to Mansoor Sahib.
02:14Then Shah Sahib is saying this.
02:16You had objected to me changing a member of this committee.
02:19That is, I had objected to Muneeb Sahib,
02:21you had an objection to this.
02:23You gave me the ultimatum that
02:25until Muneeb Akhtar does not return to the committee,
02:27you will not sit in this committee.
02:29Shah Sahib, this demand of yours is against the law.
02:31Chief Justice is saying to the senior judge
02:33that this demand of yours is against the law.
02:35In fact, further,
02:37legally, you cannot ask me
02:39which committee member should I nominate.
02:42Because the law gives me the right
02:44to nominate any member of the committee.
02:46But, because I believe in transparency,
02:48I will tell you why I did not nominate Muneeb Akhtar Sahib
02:51as a member of the committee.
02:53And after that,
02:55he says, remember,
02:57I am only doing this on your insistence.
02:59Otherwise, I am not at all bound
03:01to tell you the reasons.
03:03Then he told the reasons.
03:05He said, Justice Muneeb Sahib
03:07was one of the two judges
03:09who did not care about the burden of the case
03:11and took a leave.
03:13He insisted on attending the committee meetings.
03:15And the next senior judge,
03:17Justice Yahya,
03:19did not trust him.
03:21Then, Justice Muneeb Sahib says,
03:23Practice and Procedure Act says
03:25that all the urgent cases
03:27will be settled in 14 days.
03:29But, what did Justice Muneeb Sahib do?
03:31He refused to listen to the urgent legal cases
03:33and took a leave.
03:35So, he gave more leave.
03:37Then, he made another specific complaint.
03:39He said, his behaviour was very rude.
03:41Justice Muneeb Akhtar
03:43behaved rudely,
03:45improperly
03:47and inappropriately
03:49with the members of the committee.
03:51These are the reasons
03:53why Justice Muneeb Akhtar
03:55was removed from the committee.
03:57Justice Muneeb Akhtar's behaviour
03:59in the committee was inappropriate
04:01and he even walked out.
04:03The bench where Justice Muneeb used to sit,
04:05he used to finish his work before 11 o'clock
04:07and leave.
04:09Justice Muneeb Akhtar accused him
04:11of bypassing Justice Yahya Afridi
04:13and not making him a member of the committee.
04:15He said,
04:17if there was anyone
04:19who did not want Justice Yahya Afridi
04:21to become a member of the committee,
04:23it was not me,
04:25it was Justice Muneeb Akhtar.
04:27I had requested Justice Yahya Afridi
04:29for a meeting on 20th September,
04:31but he was not available.
04:33Justice Yahya Afridi is a senior judge
04:35than Aminuddin Khan.
04:37Justice Muneeb Akhtar objected to it
04:39and is now responding to it.
04:41He said,
04:43yesterday I requested Justice Yahya Afridi
04:45but he said he did not want to become
04:47a member of the committee.
04:49After that, I requested Justice Aminuddin Khan
04:51to cancel his tour of Lahore
04:53and become a member of the committee.
04:55He himself told the registrar
04:57that he was busy
04:59and the committee was dismissed.
05:01Two days later, he said
05:03he did not want to become a member of the committee.
05:05One more false accusation
05:07that he put on me was that
05:09I am running a one-man show
05:11and such things cannot change the facts.
05:13I did not want to count the good deeds
05:15that happened in the court,
05:17but now I have to do this
05:19to cancel a false statement.
05:21Then he counted the list of things
05:23that I did for the court.
05:25In the end, he said that
05:27despite all these things,
05:29your saying that the country is going through
05:31a legal crisis is a worrisome crime.
05:33He said such things
05:35can lead to political or economic downfall.
05:37Can I ask what benefit
05:39did your statements bring?
05:41Mr. Shah, the law allows me
05:43to appoint a judge
05:45in the committee.
05:47I have told you the reasons for this.
05:49However, it seems that
05:51all the judges are not the same in your opinion.
05:53I hope that now you will become a member
05:55of this committee and serve the people.
05:57You will do your part
05:59so that the court proceedings can be carried out properly.
06:01Since you had written your letter
06:03to the registrar,
06:05and I had not written it,
06:07and I had also sent the copy
06:09to the other colleagues,
06:11so now I have no choice
06:13but to cancel this false statement
06:15through my letter
06:17and send the copy
06:19to those people.
06:21Very straightforward,
06:23alarming,
06:25and there is no doubt
06:27that the Supreme Court
06:29and the judges
06:31of Pakistan
06:33are not the same.
06:35We will conclude after a short break.
