If anyone is there to replace former chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry and mimic what he did to Pakistan People’s Party during his ultra-active judicial spree, it is Justice Jawad S Khawaja. He is one of the closet aide of the former CJP and has shown his allegiance to him on several occasions.
CJP Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry also always preferred to keep Jawad S Khawaja in his bench or any bench which was important to us in which he couldn’t sit. Khawaja made sure he also show the same crazy activism shown by the boss Iftikhar Chaudhry.
PPP government was corrupt, inept and inefficient but its also true that they were also gridlocked by the suo moto actions by the Iftikhar Chaudhry, who even sent one of their prime minister sent packing on a fishy contempt notice and never looked back.
Once Justice Jawad S. Khawaja remarked during a case proceeding that he thought Iftikhar Chaudhry was kind of some saint. Such was the loyalty and allegiance of Khawaja with Chaudhry. It was evident at that time that whenever Khawaja got the chance, he will surpass his idol Chaudhry.
The bad luck of PML-N is that Jawad Khawaja is hearing very important cases these days and he is already flexing his muscles and all set to become a pain in the back for the PML-N. Khawaja has already hinted at possibility of disrupting the executive domain.
A two-member bench, headed by Justice Jawad S Khawaja is hearing the case about local bodies elections not being held in the cantt areas of Pakistan. Now the bench is seeking initiation of contempt of court proceedings against the prime minister for not holding the local bodies elections in the cantonment boards countrywide.
This is just the beginning. PM Nawaz Sharif might dodge this bullet, but next one and then the volley of them is fast coming.
