ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Supreme Court’s senior puisne judge Justice Mansoor Ali Shah has been removed from adviser’s role in the Federal Judicial Academy.

Justice Shah had been performing advisory role in the academy for the last one year.

Earlier, speaking to journalists after the oath-taking ceremony of newly-appointed SC judges, Justice Shah said he held no malice or grudge against anyone.

Asked about rumours that a reference may be filed against him, the senior judge said he wasn’t afraid of any such move against him as he didn’t commit any wrongdoing.

He, however, averred people couldn’t see the elephant in the room.

Answering another question about criticism of backlog of cases, he said: “You can check the ratio of hearing of the cases by the judges by visiting the SC website. You will see whose cases have made it to the law books mostly.”

A few days earlier, Justice Shah and Justice Muneeb Akhtar had boycotted the meeting of the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) meant for the elevation of newly-appointed judges in the Supreme Court.
