Addressing the participants, Advocate Naqvi said a black coat did not grant one the permission to attack judges or be disrespectful to them. “It is need of the hour to stop such elements who are locking down courtrooms and disgracing a noble profession,” he added.
On the occasion, the lawyers unanimously resolved that learned and professional lawyers should come forward to save judiciary from non-professionals, adding that otherwise the entire judicial system would collapse.
They called for upholding the supremacy of law, saying that who would comply with the court orders if the lawyers themselves were not ready to surrender before the courts. They also decided to attend proceedings of the case which is scheduled for August 11 (tomorrow).
