ISLAMABAD: President Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) Muhammad Yaseen Azad has appealed the members of the legal fraternity across Pakistan to observe “Black Day” on (Friday), as a mark of condemnation against the sacking of Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, five years ago on March 9, 2007 by former President General (retd) Pervez Musharraf. SCBA has requested the bar councils and all bar associations all over the country to convene protest meetings on their bar premises and hoist black flags on March 9, as a mark of protest against the unconstitutional action of the former dictator.
