*LONDON - Pakistan to have new security force for the protection of judges and the security of courts across Pakistan.*
*Chief Justice of Pakistan, Mian Saqib Nisar, has said that a separate force would be formed soon for security of courts in Pakistan.*
Speaking to media in London, the CJP said there was a separate force for provision of security to judges and courts in the United States. “We are in talks with the Interior Ministry and soon a separate force will be constituted for our courts”, remarked the chief justice.
To questions regarding cases of different political figures in the country, Justice Nisar said he had received an apology letter from ex-senator Faisal Raza Abidi. “I have asked my staff to contact Mr. Abidi and they will subsequently analyse whether the former senator was feeling guilty on his statements,” he added.
Abidi is currently imprisoned in a contempt of court case after he strongly criticized the judiciary in one of his recent speeches.
