Judges quit in Pakistan dispute
BBC - March 19, 2007
A number of judges have resigned in Pakistan in continuing protests over the suspension of the chief justice of the Supreme Court.
'In vain'
"I have waited a few days before addressing you, in the hope something will be done to remedy the harm done to the judicial organ of the state," Lahore High Court Judge Jawad S Khawaja said in a resignation letter sent to the president on Monday, the Associated Press news agency reports.
"It seems I have waited in vain."
In Karachi, the president of the High Court bar, Iftikhar Javed Qazi, said that four lower court judges in Karachi and a lower court judge in another southern city, Pannoaqil, had handed in their resignations.

It’s a blessing in disguise, Let all the corrupt to core judges resign along with the Police Officers, ete etc. Hire someone fresh untainted and without “family” ties. May be its good for Pakistan.
For your Information:
Mr. Jawad Khawaja is widely known as one of the most honest and respectable judges in Pakistan. He did a courageous and honorable thing.
Best,
Hassan
