After expressing total mistrust in Islamabad High Court Chief Justice Aamir Farooq, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf founder Imran Khan is contemplating to seek recusal of Chief Justice of Pakistan Qazi Faez Isa from any bench hearing matters related to him or his party.
Imran Khan’s spokesperson Shoaib Shaheen told media that he held a meeting with Imran at the Adiala Jail wherein it was discussed that CJP Isa should not hear cases related to Imran and his party in view of the larger bench order wherein it was held that Justice Isa should not hear cases involving Imran.
He stated that the PTI would move an application for his recusal in case any matter related to the party or its founder would be fixed before any bench led by CJP Isa.
Shaheen informed that they were preparing a petition against alleged rigging in the recent elections and the same would be filed in the apex court soon.
Imran and his wife, Bushra Bibi, already expressed mistrust in the IHC CJ. The IHC has issued notices to superior bars on their objections. The matter is still pending in the apex court.
