Reserving the verdict in the case related to a property dispute, Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani of the Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Tuesday said it was so unfortunate that the case, which could have been decided in just an hour, had been in sub judice for the last 10 years, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.
During the hearing of a case related to the transfer of a 10 kanals and 16 marlas of land, Justice Kiani remarked, “Here the judges are incompetent. But lawyers should not be like them.”
The judge lamented that despite the fact that some learned judges had served in the IHC in the past, still, the backlog of cases could not be cleared. “What is the fault of the masses?” he questioned.
