Rawalpindi: Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry said that corruption will not be tolerated under any circumstances.
At the inauguration of the judicial complex in Rawalpindi, he said that issuing a verdict is not enough rather justice must be seen to be done from the verdict.
“People reposed great trust in judiciary, thus it was imperative for the judges and lawyers that they stood up against all kinds of constitutional excesses to stonewall them,” the CJP said.
The CJ Iftikhar said that the Black Coat and the Black Camera have been struggling for the supremacy as well as independence of the judiciary for the last five years.
Going forward, he urged the lawyers to volunteer their efforts for the supremacy of Constitution.
In his speech, Chief Justice of Pakistan defined the thriving nations as those, which believed in égalité, where the poor and the rich were treated in the same way without any distinction.
“An army cannot win a war unless there is a nation full of honour standing behind it”, Chief Justice said.
On Balochistan, the Chief Justice said the Constitution and the law of the land were yet far from implementation in the most underdeveloped but the most mineral-rich province of Pakistan.
“The law & order situation in Balochistan is a cause of grave concern and must be improved without delay”, the Chief Justice said wrapping up his speech.
