Islamabad: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) activist Senator Faisal Raza Abidi on Thursday once again lashed out at Chief Justice of Pakistan, Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, and demanded his resignation for misusing authority.
Abidi tried to stage a sit-in when he was not allowed to speak on the subject during the Senate session on Thursday.
Criticizing the chief justice for allegedly using the letter head of the Supreme Court for his family’s business, Abidi said that Justice Chaudhry is guilty of violating the constitution.
He accused the chief justice of the apex court of excessively using the power of taking suo moto actions and against the court’s norms issued undue and excessive injunctions.
Abidi demanded Justice Tasaduq Jilani to call a meeting of the Supreme Judicial Council over the issue.
The senator, on the occasion, handed few important documents to the chair.
It is to be mentioned here that Faisal Raza Abidi’s press conference on Thursday was not broadcasted on television as SC had directed media organizations to avoid broadcasting remarks against judiciary.
