LAHORE, Aug 29: Some deposed judges of the Lahore High Court are reported to have expressed willingness to accept the government’s offer to resume work.According to sources, a summary about reinstatement of at least four judges, who are inclined to take a fresh oath, has been sent to the acting president.

“But there is some mist about a fifth judge,” the sources said.

Lawyers associated with the move said the judges might be sworn in on Saturday or Monday.

An official, however, claimed that a notification was still pending and unless it was issued, the judges could not take oath.

“If you ask me about the oath, mark Monday as the right day for the oath,” he said.

Lawyers here are also anxious to find out the terms offered to the deposed judges.

They said though they were not sure but they were surprised to hear that the deposed judges of the Sindh High Court had been appointed under a notification issued in the name of President General (retd) Pervez Musharraf.

Lahore High Court Bar Association president Anwar Kamal said he was surprised that the PPP could bring these judges back when it had been talking about the need for amendment to the Constitution for reinstating the judges.
