According to the request of the High Court Bar, 6 judges of the Islamabad High Court described serious incidents in the letter, the independent judiciary is the basis of the Constitution and the only source of justice.

The Islamabad High Court Bar in its petition further said that compromise on the independence of the judiciary is not acceptable in any case, so the Supreme Court should take the matter seriously.

It should be noted that 6 judges of the Islamabad High Court had written a letter to the Supreme Judicial Council and demanded that we fully support the position of Justice Retired Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui to conduct an investigation.
