ISLAMABAD: The All Pakistan Lawyers Convention on Assault on Judiciary and Media called for formation of an independent and high-level commission to look into the allegations levelled by former Islamabad High Court judge Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui in which he highlighted the role of intelligence agencies in influencing judicial matters.
In his reply to the July 31, 2018 show cause notice by the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC), which was also read out before a five-judge Supreme Court judge, Justice Siddiqui had openly named Director General of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and then DG-C Lt Gen Faiz Hameed for his visits to the former judge to allegedly interfere in the affairs of the judiciary and to manipulate the formation of benches of the high court.
