Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leaders associated on Wednesday the letter written by six Islamabad High Court judges to the Supreme Judicial Council to court decisions against party founder Imran Khan and claimed the same have lost their credibility. Addressing a press conference, PTI chairman Barrister Gohar Khan, accompanied by general secretary Omar Ayub and information secretary Raoof Hasan, highlighted the unprecedented nature of the letter, terming it as ‘the first of its kind’. Gohar emphasized the alleged pressure faced by the judges, suggesting external influences aimed at swaying arbitrary decisions, which he argued depleted judicial independence. “The judges have run out of patience,” he added. The PTI chief said the judges’ letter cites the Tyrian White case, adding that the Toshakhana case is also an example. He maintained that the undue influence impacted the judges of the sessions court, adding that six judges of the IHC also came under pressure. Gohar cited the alleged interference in judicial matters as the reason Imran was sentenced in three different cases within a span of five days.
