ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s Chief Justice, Yahya Afridi, has convened an important session of the Judicial Commission of Pakistan to deliberate on potential transfers of judges between various high courts.
Sources reveal that the gathering, scheduled for April 28 and presided over by the Chief Justice, will primarily focus on proposals to reassign several judges currently serving at the Islamabad High Court to other judicial benches nationwide.
