PML-N questions Supreme Court's 'capacity to judge' in response to detailed judgement
[DAWN] The PML-N on Wednesday "rejected" what it termed "inappropriate remarks" made by five justices of the Supreme Court in their detailed judgement on multiple review petitions filed against the July 28 verdict in the Panama Papers case.The statement, released by the party after a meeting at Punjab 1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard 2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers 3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots.... House in Islamabad, said that whatever was said about the three-time prime minister "falls short of the court's standards." In the statement, the party accused Supreme Court judges not only of trying to influence the lower courts ‐ saying that this was the opinion of several unnamed "legal experts" ‐ but also of giving a judgement on the ongoing corruption references against the Sharif family before they have been completed. "The detailed judgement is a very unfortunate example of malice, hostility, anger and provocation from beginning to the end," the party said. Putting to rest any speculation that Nawaz Sharif  ... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf, then by the courts...and family had been convinced to desist from attacking state institutions, the statement used unusually harsh language to criticise the Supreme Court on being unable to deliver justice. "The caravans were looted because oaths were taken over the bandidos' hands," the statement alleged, invoking the Provisional Constitution Order imposed during dictator Pervaiz Musharraf's regime. The "caravans looted by bandidos" reference was a response to a verse quoted in the Supreme Court's judgement the day earlier, which the PML-N seems to have taken particular offense at.
