ISLAMABAD: National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq has filed a reference against Justice Asif Saeed Khosa in Supreme Judicial Council on Saturday for biased remarks articulated against him during April 20 hearing of Panama Papers case.
Justice Khosa called Ayaz an ally of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif in court which reveals the biased thinking of the judge since none of the other judges in the Panamagate bench uttered such remarks, according to the NA speaker.
The reference against Justice Khosa has been filed under the Article 209 of the Constitution, which deals with matters of Supreme Judicial Council.
Justice Khosa, who headed the five-judge bench of the Panama Case, had referred to Sadiq as Nawaz Sharif’s supporter because the speaker failed to forward details to Election Comission of Pakistan (ECP) of Pakistan Tehreeke Insaf’s case against the former premier.
