SHC suspends KU's cancellation of Justice Jahangiri's law degree
['Nasir Butt']
The Express Tribune
The Sindh High Court (SHC) has suspended University of Karachi's decision to cancel the degree of Islamabad High Court (IHC) judge Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri.
A two-member bench led by Justice Muhammad Iqbal Kalhoro heard the petition against the degree cancellation.
The petitioner’s counsel, Barrister Salahuddin, sought more time from the bench to respond while seeking cancellation of the varsity's order in the meantime.
KU Syndicate endorsed the findings, which later became the basis of a complaint now pending before the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC).
During the hearing, his counsel staged a walkout much to the annoyance of SHC bench.
