Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists (PFUJ ) have strongly condemned ransacking of Islamabad High Court building, particularly the attack on the office of Chief Justice Ather Minallah by a group of unruly lawyers during a recent protest.
In a statement issued on Saturday, PFUJ President Shahzada Zulfiqar and Secretary General Nasir Zaidi while criticising the unruly behaviour said their action was unbecoming of their respected profession.
They said instead of cooperating with the authorities for demolishing their illegally constructed offices in the high court building premises this group of lawyers started vandalism and attacked the Chief Justice’s office and misbehaved with him.
The PFUJ leadership demanded stern action against those lawyers who were involved in the attack.
PFUJ leaders said that lawyers were a role model for the society and such black sheeps should not be allowed to bring such a disrespect to the profession.
