The Islamabad High Court (IHC) removed Justice Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri as a judge on Thursday in a case pertaining to his law degree.
A division bench led by Chief Justice Sardar Muhammad Sarfraz Dogar and Justice Muhammad Azam Khan announced the decision on a plea that challenged the legitimacy of Justice Jahangiri’s law degree and appointment as a judge.
The bench directed Justice Jahangiri to cease his office forthwith for “having an invalid law degree at the time of his appointment and confirmation as a judge”.
It also directed the law ministry to denotify him as a judge.
