Hamid Khan

"It appears that either he did not know or did not care to note that the provisions of the constitution of 1956 were similar to those of the Indian constitution of 1950 which has been a success despite the greater complexities of the Indian union with dozens of ethnicities and languages and hundreds of dialects. What right had he to give his verdict on parliamentary democracy without even having tried it."

"By allowing the announcement of the decision by the military courts, the Supreme Court has let us down. He stated that the lawyers did not consider military courts as legitimate and did not accept their decisions, the decision to allow military trial verdicts was a stain on the Supreme Court. The military courts were only meant for trying military personnel and taking civilians’ trials to military courts was unconstitutional and so-called constitutional bench was a product of the 26th Amendment."

"Hamid Khan declared that the lawyers' movement against the 26th Amendment had commenced and would ultimately overturn the amendment and emphasized that their struggle was gaining momentum. The Supreme Court, asserting that certain individuals within the judiciary were supporting the establishment. The Chief Justice's acceptance of the position has greatly disappointed us and 26th Amendment was passed without proper parliamentary awareness."

"It's a matter of regret, he said, that the PTI founder and his former foreign minister were not allowed to hire lawyers of their choices. A great deal of injustice was being done to them, he deplored. There is an appalling situation of human rights in the country and steps should be taken to prevent the violation of fundamental rights."

"Hamid Khan excused himself from accepting the chairmanship in the prevailing political situation and hoped that the president and Chief Justice of Pakistan Qazi Faez Isa would ensure the rule of law and supremacy of the constitution in the country."
