High Court Slams Police Over Lawyer Complaints

The high court bench was hearing a case about lawyers’ complaints registered against their clients.

Justice Panhwar also said that Karachi’s conditions have become very dangerous, “If a citizen gets the opportunity to leave Karachi, none of them will remain in the city”, he remarked.

“The lawyers are facing excesses, what the police department is doing,” he questioned. “Even it doesn’t prepare to register a murder case,” he said.

“The police doesn’t dare to stop a high up in vehicle,” he remarked. “If a constable carries a camera with him, a high-up or a politician, everyone has to stop. The video goes viral, and action will be taken, if he misbehaves with police,” the bench observed.

Justice Panhwar said that the police are only open to act against poor people.

The lawyers have registered 600 cases, but no action taken. “The lawyers are not wrong, it is the police,” the bench remarked.
