– Omar Ayub sees constitutional amendment ‘attempt to weaken’ judiciary –
Meanwhile, Opposition Leader in National Assembly Omar Ayub asserted that the constitutional amendment is an attempt to "weaken" the judiciary.
Expressing his thoughts during the NA session in the wee hours of Monday, Ayub said: "Intezar Panjotha to date is missing. Riaz Fatyana's son had been abducted twice."
Ayub lamented: “Why not the constitutional amendment could be passed on October 31?" Was the country would have closed if the amendment passed subsequently?”
“The constitutional amendment’s draft should have been dispatched to the standing committee and law and justice,” he stated.
“The real objective of the special committee had not been used,” Ayub said.
