Karachi, February 4, 2025 – The Karachi Bar Association has initiated a strike to protest the recent transfer of judges, demanding a reversal of the decision and a postponement of Supreme Court appointments. The association claims the transfers threaten judicial independence and reflect political influence. Legal professionals have joined the strike, urging the protection of judicial autonomy.
The protest has raised concerns about the timing and rationale behind the transfers, with the Karachi Bar Association warning of further action if their demands are not addressed. The strike is expected to disrupt court activities and fuels ongoing debates about judicial reforms in Pakistan.
