The Federal Constitutional Court (FCC) on Monday rejected intra-court appeals (ICAs) filed by five Islamabad High Court (IHC) judges and others challenging the Supreme Court’s verdict on judges’ transfer and upheld the June verdict.
The court also rejected the judges’ request seeking the transfer of their ICA back to the SC on account of non-compliance, saying that none of the petitioners appeared before the court. The verdict came on miscellaneous petition filed by IHC’s Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kiyani, Justice Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri, Justice Babar Sattar, Justice Sardar Ejaz Ishaq Khan and Justice Saman Riffat Imtiaz in the FCC, arguing that the case must be heard by the Supreme Court.
