The countrywide movement of the lawyers for the restoration of the Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftekhar Muhammad Chaudhry had played an important role in this regard while the political and the religious parties of the country besides the civil society also took active part in that struggle.
Munawar Hassan said that society sans justice could not survive. The JI, he said was striving for the rule of law and justice and for the solution to the masses' problems and it would continue to play its role in the struggle for the judiciary's independence and human rights.
