Lawyers in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Boycott Courts Over Governor's Rule Imposition
Lawyers across Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province in Pakistan boycotted court proceedings following a call by the K-P Bar Council to protest the federal government's imposition of governor's rule and an emergency. The Bar Council described these measures as unconstitutional and illegal, urging their withdrawal. The boycott disrupted judicial activities in multiple districts. Meanwhile, several petitions challenging the constitutional validity of the governor's rule and emergency have been filed before the Peshawar High Court.
