Multiple petitions have been filed in the Supreme Court (SC) demanding the formation of a full court over allegations of intelligence agency interference in judicial matters. The Balochistan Bar Council and Balochistan High Court Bar Association have filed these petitions, seeking the annulment of the one-man commission appointed by the government to investigate the claims and requesting guidelines from the apex court to prevent such incidents in the future. The SC had taken suo motu notice of these allegations after a letter was sent by IHC judges complaining of interference in judicial affairs. The hearing for this suo motu case is scheduled to resume on April 29. The IHC’s full court meeting has also unanimously decided to give an “institutional response” to any potential meddling in the court’s affairs.
