LAHORE: The government does not plan to extend the term of office of Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Abdul Hameed Dogar, a private TV channel quoted Federal Law Secretary Agha Rafeeq as saying on Saturday.
The channel quoted Rafeeq as saying, “Though Justice Sardar Raza Muhammad Khan is the senior-most judge after the incumbent chief justice, the decision about the next chief justice will be made by President Zardari.”
Separately, a press release issued by the Law and Justice Division revealed that the president has extended the term of office of 10 judges of the Lahore High Court for a period of six months with effect from the date their present terms expire.
