Supreme Court rejects rumors of scuffle between judges. The Supreme Court of Pakistan has rejected news reports of an alleged brawl and scuffle between top court judges in the federal capital’s judges Colony Park on Friday.
In a statement, the Supreme Court called the reports fake. The reaction comes following rumors that senior judges got into a fight during their walk the day before.
This report has been widely disseminated and publicized on many social media platforms.
“The report is hereby refuted in the strongest terms. It is false, mischievous, and malicious. No such incident took place,” reads the statement.
The fake reporting about the judges of the Supreme Court of Pakistan is a serious violation of the law and represents an effort by disaffected elements to diminish the dignity of the court and its Hon’ble members.
