Islamabad High Court (IHC) Justice Khadim Hussain Soomro on Tuesday recused himself from hearing the case challenging Justice Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri’s academic degree, leading to the adjournment of proceedings without any arguments.
A two-member bench, comprising Chief Justice Sarfraz Dogar and Justice Soomro, had to hear the case based on a miscellaneous application filed by the Islamabad Bar Association seeking to become a party in the matter.
During the proceedings, Justice Soomro recused himself from hearing the case, following which the bench stood dissolved, and the hearing was adjourned without any further proceedings.
