SC given better judgment in difficult time rejecting ‘doctrine of necessity’: Sheikh Rashid
Rawalpindi: (Staff Reporter) Awami Muslim League chief and former interior minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed has said the Supreme Court (SC) has given a better judgment in difficult time rejecting the “doctrine of necessity.”
According to the source, while reacting to the SC decision in the election postponement case, Rashid wrote on micro-blogging website Twitter that no one inside the SC talked of boycott of proceeding. Everyone wanted to argue the case.
As per details the 85-member cabinet cannot reject the Supreme Court (SC) decision. He dared the Shehbaz government to get ready for either disqualification or anarchy in the country. The former minister said that PDM have to accept the verdict of Supreme Court (SC) come what may.
Furthermore the SC also follows the Constitution. Masses are the real ruler. If the decision of the judiciary is not obeyed, there will be a rebellion. Shehbaz Sharif must rethink whether to accept the decision of the judiciary or to be disqualified for contempt of court and go to Raiwind.
Moreover Sheikh Rashid said that the SC has said that there is no need for a combat force. Rangers, FC and ex-servicemen can provide security for elections. He called former minister Nawaz Sharif a fugitive, running form judiciary, and termed his press conference disappointing.
Meanwhile the former interior minister advised the rulers to stop “dreaming” about filing a reference against three judges, imposing emergency or martial law. Sharif’s family has been begging to be official guests of Saudi Arabia for the last one week.
