Supreme Court's Verdict Against Judge Nasser Javed Rana, Who Delivered the 190 Million Pound Case Verdict?
Transcript
00:00Justice in Pakistan is always a target of criticism, but what are the factors behind the judges' statements, their promotion, their elevation and their election?
00:12This is a very interesting method. We have compiled it from some history and present it to you.
00:17We have taken two examples. One is of today's judge, whose name is Nasir Javed Rana.
00:23He has given a judgment of £190 million today.
00:26An interesting news was published about him in 2004.
00:30On 26th October 2004, Supreme Court Chief Justice Nazim Hussain Siddiqui issued an order to withdraw judicial powers from Magistrate Nasir Javed Rana.
00:40Magistrate Nasir Javed Rana was accused of illegally imprisoning a senior lawyer Habib Wahab Khairi while he was fighting against the law.
00:50Chief Justice had written in his ruling that Nasir Javed Rana is completely incapable of serving the court.
00:55Chief Justice further said in his ruling that Magistrate Nasir Javed Rana deliberately put his class and the sanctity of the court at risk and handed over a senior lawyer to the police.
01:04Magistrate Nasir Javed Rana has not fulfilled legal obligations to hand over a senior lawyer to the police.
01:11And I saw that today, 20 years later, there was a very high profile case.
01:14He has written this judgment using £190 million in his claims.
01:20So in 20 years, his journey will be very interesting.
01:24The second example that I will give you today is also a very fascinating phenomenon.
01:29He was a former prosecutor of the ANF who has been nominated as a judge today.
01:34Why am I telling you this? Because it was a very high profile case of Rana Sanaullah.
01:39The Judicial Commission has nominated Session Judge Azam Khan and former President of Islamabad High Court Bar Raja Inamuddin Minhas for judges of Islamabad High Court.
01:48Raja Inam Ameen Minhas was the chief prosecutor of the ANF in the Manashiat Baramdagi case against Musheer-e-Wazir-e-Azam Rana Sanaullah.
01:57And at that time, Raja Inam Ameen Minhas said that there are all evidences against Rana Sanaullah including the video.
02:04But later, Rana Sanaullah was acquitted in this case and today he is the Musheer-e-Wazir-e-Azam.
02:10Rana Sanaullah has also become a Musheer and the prosecutor has also become a Musheer.
02:15And today his name has been finalized in the office of the judge.
02:19So the system of Pakistan is very unique.
02:21The program is over, do not forget to give your feedback. Take care, goodbye.
