Judge who convicted IK made OSD

Published Updated

ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC), on Friday, made Additional District and Sessions Judge Humayun Dilawar, who convicted Imran Khan, chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, an officer on special duty (OSD).

The ADS Dilawar had convicted chairman PTI and handed him down a three-year jail term on charges of corrupt practices and misstatement in Toshakhana gifts sale case.

The development came hours after IHC Chief Justice Aamer Farooq observed that the trial court, which sentenced the former prime minister in the Toshakhana case, “did wrong”.

According to a notification issued by the IHC additional registrar, “The honourable Chief Justice of this court has been pleased to make transfer/ posting of ADSJ working in the Islamabad Judicial Service, in the public interest.

As per the notification, Additional District and Sessions Judge Humayun Dilawar has now been asked to report to the IHC. It added, “The Judicial Officer shall join his new assignment with immediate effect.”

His explanation is that he is threatened hence the request for transfer. But no one mentions the manner in which the application of law/acts in this case took place. Everyone knows that honesty is out of fashion now, but there was a time when the due process of law was considered of utmost importance in justice, and it was reviewed diligently. The norm now is to create enough noise to drown the unjust act and to cover the poor application of the law, politicize the issue altogether.
