Pakistan Peoples Party’s (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari on Friday voiced his party’s support for select proposals for the 27th Constitutional Amendment, particularly those relating to the establishment of the Constitutional Court.
In a press conference after the PPP’s Central Executive Committee (CEC) meeting, Bilawal said: “We agree to three things: amending Article 243, constitutional court, and the government having authority to transfer judges.”
However, he mentioned that his party had a condition for the transfer of judges that the government should not have complete authority to transfer judges unilaterally.
“We agree to the transfer of judges,” he mentioned, “as long as incoming and outgoing chief justices are members of the commission that is to make that decision.”
This is a developing story and is being updated with new details.
