He observed this while presiding over a high-level meeting on reforms in the criminal justice system and implementation of the Civil Procedure Code in the provinces and Islamabad. “If we look at the history of the nations of the world, only those nations have been able to develop which have brought a system of organised and strong justice to provide justice to the people. The previous governments have taken advantage of lawlessness by corrupting the system,” he noted.
