Prime Minister Imran Khan has emphatically declared that action against the corrupt will go on regardless of how vocal or violent the protests become.
It is important in this connection to keep in view the fact that all cases of corruption against all persons that are in ‘progress’ in the courts or in the offices of the prosecutors /interrogators have nothing to do with the Imran Khan government. These cases have pre-Imran origins and in some examples very old history.
Imran Khan’s promised war on corruption and the corrupt has yet to begin.
At the moment the role of Imran Khan simply is to ensure’ that the long delay in the enforcement of justice in the ‘pending’ as well as ‘running’ cases is swiftly compensated.
It goes without saying that JUSTICE till now has been ‘crucified’ at the altar of the LAW which by itself has huge loopholes that are further ‘fortified’ by the deliberate faultiness created by incompetent or ‘compromised’ prosecution.
It may sound harsh but the fact is that the rape of Justice in the country has been carried out by well-paid lawyers and facilitated by the judges who for one reason or the other lend their ears more to the faultiness in the law and the prosecution than to the demands and the requisites of Justice.
Our lawyers more or less act as prostitutes— and their services are always available to the ‘generous payers’. Tragically nobody is an exception, even though more ‘sophisticated’ ‘legal whores’ like to hide behind the labels of respectability.
Our Judiciary’s respectable image is owed to the presence around of such rare souls as Justice Saqib Nisar, Justice Asif Khosa, Justice Ejazul Hassan and their likes. But the Justice Qayyum species remains entrenched firmly.
Dear Mr Prime Minister, no matter how determined and inspired you are in the cause of corruption-free society and governance, the Corrupt have enough money to buy out Justice in the end. Not till this system of the Law, the prosecution and the resultant stalemate is uprooted and replaced with the concept that JUSTICE, NOT THE LAW IS SUPREME, will the society be deSharifized, or deZardarised.
