LAHORE, Sep 13: The Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) has warned the government to keep its comments regarding judiciary confined within the limits of the law.In a statement issued here on Thursday, the SCBA office-bearers said PML Chief Shujaat Husain’s statement regarding judiciary had been carefully designed.

“He has no legal or moral authority to issue such a statement. He should go through the Constitution carefully, otherwise lawyers can make him understand what the Constitution is all about.”

They said Karachi was part of Pakistan and denying Imran Khan entry into the city was a condemnable act. The government should remove the MQM from the government which considered Karachi as a separate state, they said.

They asked the lawyers’ community to prepare itself for a campaign against Gen Musharraf who had announced contesting polls for the office of the president in violation of the Constitution.

They appealed to civil society and political parties to follow lawyers’ call for boycott and rallies the day Gen Musharraf submitted his nomination papers for re-election. —Reporter
