“The resumption of a meeting, after a period of about three months, is something which is alien to the law and common sense,” said Justice Isa. “In any event, the composition of the JCP has undergone a change since the last meeting. And, how can the meeting of July 28, 2022, be stated to be ‘resumed on October 24, 2022’ with a different agenda?” he questioned, adding that the agenda for the meeting of July 28 was to consider four junior judges and the chief justice of the Peshawar High Court.
“But the agenda of the meeting for October 24 is to consider three junior judges and the Chief Justice of the Islamabad High Court,” he maintained in the letter. Justice Isa also stated that putting forward the names of three junior judges whose nominations have already been rejected “disparages and disrespects the honourable members” and undermines the credibility and integrity of the JCP. Justice Isa furthered that the CJP Bandial didn’t “deign it appropriate to discuss what he was proposing, or even inform him”, despite the fact that he occupies a room next to his.
