Karachi:
The University of Karachi has canceled the title of LLB of the Judge of the Superior Court of Islamabad (IHC) Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri in view of the decision of the last year of its union.
Meanwhile, a division bank of the Superior Court of Sindh (SHC) also dismissed all the requests that question the cancellation of the judge’s title due to non -disgrace.
On August 31, 2024, the union of the University of Karachi annulled this degree of “invalid” Jahangiri justice about the recommendations of the unjust committee of the University (UFM). The SHC on September 5, 2024 suspended the university’s decision.
However, the University registrar has issued a “statement” dated September 25, stating that Tariq Mahmood, son of Qazi Muhammad Akram, had been declared guilty of using unfair means at the end of the 80s.
“[He] He was eliminated for three years to admit at any university/university and appear in any university degree exam under the circular disqualification NO 88 of 1989 and was never a student of Islamia Law College Karachi.
“In compliance with the union meeting held on August 31, 2024, Vide Resolution No. 06, the results of LLB and the degree of Tariq Mehmood Bearing Seat No 22857; registration No AIL-7124/87 are withdrawn and canceled. This is being issued with the approval of the vice chancellor,” he added.
Separately, the Banking Hearing of the SHC Division against the decision of August 31 of the Union issued an order in writing on Friday, dismissing a set of requests presented against the cancellation of Jahangiri’s lawyer on the non -disgust.
On Thursday, the heated scenes were witnessed in the SHC as a division bank comprised of Judge Mohammad Karim Khan Agha and Judge Adnan-ul-Karim Memon declined entertaining the Jhangiri plea, which appeared in person, to become a party in procedures on the complement, challenging the cancellation of its title.
The bank insisted that first he would listen and decide the maintainability of the requests.
In his written order, the bank said he gave the opportunity to listen to all the advice for petitioners on the question of the maintainability of their requests; However, the councils deliberately decided not to take advantage of the opportunity and, instead, they left the courtroom while they caused a lot.
“This conduct is very disabled. The registrar of this court will immediately preserve all the CCTV recordings and any audio recording of 25.09.2025 both inside and outside the CB-I court room.
“Therefore, we have dismissed all the requests mentioned above by non -prosecution, for the reasons detailed above together with all the applications listed/pending,” the order said.
The order said it is for this court to determine how to regulate their own procedures, and the defenders cannot be issued by the defenders, and added that the court had decided that preliminary objections and the question of maintainability will be decided through a single common order.
“Naturally, if it was discovered that the objections were valid, the question of maintainability can no longer be relevant. Unfortunately, the wise lawyer who represents the parties, together with other members of the Bar Association, insisted that their objections are deciding first.
“This court informed them that all matters would be heard and determined together as mentioned above. To this, all the lawyers learned from the petitioners left the courtroom, which clearly indicates their lack of will to proceed with these requests.”
He said that the advice came out despite the fact that they were given the opportunity to be heard that, according to them, they deliberately refused to take advantage of. Therefore, their requests and any quoted request are dismissed by non -prosecution.
“In addition, they began raising slogans against the Judiciary and completely interrupted the decorum of the Court. Such behavior is very improper and is not expected of the members of the legal profession.
“Prima Facie, this conduct is equivalent to the court. However, as an indulgence and by showing the maximum judicial restriction, we have decided to refrain from issuing such notices. The lawyer in question is expected to maintain the decoration of the court in the future,” he said.
On September 16, an IHC division bank comprising the president of the Supreme Court Sardar Muhammad Sarfraz Dogar and Judge Muhammad Azam Khan prevented Judge Jehangiri from doing his duties, since he held a request accusing the judge of having a doubtful title of LLB.
The judge challenged the decision in the Supreme Court, whose Constitutional Bank of five members (CB) led by Judge Aminuddin Khan will hear the case on September 29.
In a petition presented in the SHC, Judge Jahangiri said that the general context in which the illegal and bad faith cancellation of his LLB title had taken place was the unwavering judicial independence that he has demonstrated.
“Two outstanding examples stand out,” said the petition. “First, the petitioner is one of the six signatories of the letter dated 25.03.2024, written by the judges of the Honorable IHC, in which the federal government agencies gave detailed examples of interference and surveillance.
“This was such an unprecedented and shameless attack against the independence of the Judiciary that the Honorable Supreme Court of Pakistan instituted Suo Motu Case No 1 of 2024 to analyze this invasion and subversion of judicial independence, approved several orders and the matter is still sub trial.
“Secondly, the petitioner was one of the judges appointed as an electoral court for the territory of Islamabad, and his appointment was rigorous and constant by the winning candidates of the ruling party, which led to the transfer of cases of the electoral courts,” he added.
