HYDERABAD, Dec 16: The Awami Tehrik on Sunday termed removal of judges illegal and unconstitutional and demanded that the government should reinstate them.

The party’s central committee decided at a meeting to launch mass contact movement and distribute among people 100,000 handbills inscribed with demands of Sindh province.

Rasool Bux Palijo said that the judges of superior judiciary were held in high esteem and the law of the land was respected by all and sundry in all the civilised societies. Violation of law was sheer barbarism, he said.—BoC
