Pakistan Bar Council (PBC) has suspended the practicing licenses of President and Secretary, High Court Bar Association, Multan, for their misbehaviour with the Attorney-General.
The executive committee of the Pakistan Bar Council in its meeting, while considering a joint complaint of seven office bearers of the High Court Bar Association, Multan took serious note of the irresponsible conduct of Mahmood Ashraf, President and Rana Naveed, Secretary, with the learned Attorney-General and Chairman, Pakistan Bar Council, Sardar Muhammad Latif Khan Khosa, a PBC statement issued here on Wednesday said. According to PBC, Khosa is a prominent senior Advocate and three times past President of the High Court Bar Association, Multan, besides being a former member of the Pakistan Bar Council.
The committee considered the objectionable conduct of both the above office bearers of the Bar Association, as gross misconduct. The committee, therefore, decided to refer the matter to disciplinary committee of the PBC for taking disciplinary action against President and Secretary, respectively.
Meanwhile their practising license will remain suspended and they will cease to hold their offices of the Bar. The committee taking serious view of the conduct of Fazal-ur-Rehman, President, District Bar Association, Peshawar removing the name of Haji Syed Rehman, Vice-Chairman, Pakistan Bar Council from the honour board of the Bar Association and banning his entry to premises of the Peshawar Bar Association said the act is not only highly objectionable but also a gross misconduct. The committee, therefore, decided also to refer his case to disciplinary committee of the Pakistan Bar Council for disciplinary action.
Meanwhile his practising license will remain suspended and he will also cease to hold the office of President, Bar Association, Peshawar. The above named office bearers have also been restrained from operating Bar Accounts forthwith, Secretary PBC added.
