CJ SHC vows to take action against corrupt judges

SHAFAQNA PAKISTAN (Shia News Agency)

Corruption is ubiquitous in Pakistan. Corruption in the judicial system of Pakistan is not a nascent phenomenon; in a survey assessing the public perception of the nature and extent of corruption in Pakistan in 2010, 69% of the respondents were subjected to an act of corruption while interacting with the judicial system. One can only imagine the increment in that complaint demographic since then. According to tribune” Newly appointed Sindh High Court Chief Justice Faisal Arab warned on Tuesday that stern action would be taken against the judges of the district judiciary if they were found involved in any corrupt practice”. Earlier Peshawar High Court Chief Justice Dost Muhammad Khan had also made the similar commitment but nothing happened. Justice Faisal Arab is not doubt a competent and honest judge but for this particular task he will have to take strict actions rather than statements.
