LAHORE: Petition has been filed in Lahore High Court (LHC) seeking
disqualification of Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani from his
office for not implementing superior courts decisions by him.
Petition has been filed by the petitioner Allah Bakhsh Dogar through senior advocate AK Dogar.
The
petitioner has taken the plea in his petition that non-implementation
of court’s decisions by federal government against NRO and holding of
dual offices by the President Asif Ali Zardari is a heinous crime.
Government has openly descended to pursue confrontational path with the
judiciary, petition further said. Government on the other hand removes
from their offices those senior officers who implement court’s orders.
PPP office bearers observe strike and demonstrate protest against
court’s decisions, petition stated. The court should take notice of
them, petitioner prayed.
It was further said in the petition
that Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani was performing his duties
like a puppet under dictatorship of President Asif Ali Zardari and the
steps being taken by him were detrimental to democracy.
The
petitioner has requested in its petition that Prime Minister Syed
Yousuf Raza Gilani be declared disqualified for non-implementing
superior court’s orders and committing contempt of court . Online
