Nawaz says PCO judges are ‘ineligible’


SHAIKHUPURA: Pakistan Muslim League-N Chief Nawaz Sharif Wednesday said those judges who took oath of former president Musharraf are ineligible themselves because they cannot disqualify the person who is declared eligible by the people.

He said this in his address to the general public here at a public meeting in Sanga Hill.

Nawaz Sharif said: “I would have put in the same struggle had Abdul Hamid Dogar been deposed chief justice in place of Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry.”

PML-N Chief said there is a parliamentary system of government in the country, therefore, the President should not have the powers to dissolve the assemblies.

“Pakistan’s strength lies in the independence of judiciary, stability of institutions and equilibrium in powers between president and the parliament.”
