Islamabad, Mar 28 (PTI) Pakistan's Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa Thursday said that “interference" by the executive in the affairs and judicial workings of judges will not be tolerated as the government announced a formal probe into the explosive allegations by the high court judges about the powerful intelligence agencies meddling in their affairs.
The development came following a crucial meeting between Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Chief Justice Isa, who met to tackle the explosive situation in the wake of the letter by six judges of the Islamabad High Court (IHC) alleging interference by intelligence sleuths in their functioning.
Chief Justice Isa in his meeting with Prime Minister Sharif declared that the interference in the judiciary by the executive would not be tolerated, according to a statement issued by the Supreme Court on Thursday evening.
