A Peshawary | 8 years ago | Reply The real face of Chief Justice (rtd) is his son; diligently defended during his tenure as CJ. Every minute SMA dubbed as active judiciary in facts had some specific purpose/agenda; the facts will come out lowly and gradually. Why Punjab rangers do not raid CH Iftikhar office and take custody of the files and document while being shown live in case of prominent political figures as being done in Sindh. Perhaps it does not serve their hidden desires at the moment which of course will surface in due course on times A Peshawary
