It is time for SC of Pakistan to show judicial restraint and leave the final resolution of NRO to THE PEOPLE OF PAKISTAN, the true owners of the constitution of Pakistan ... I hope better sense prevails, else whatever the reality the defiant PPP will come out stronger as a martyr ... to the dismay of all their opponents ...
Option 6 from the judgement of Supreme Court ...
quote
Option No. 6: The constitutional balance vis-à-vis trichotomy and separation of powers between the Legislature, the Judiciary and the Executive is very delicately poised and if in a given situation the Executive is bent upon defying a final judicial verdict
and is ready to go to any limit in such defiance then instead of insisting upon the Executive to implement the judicial verdict and thereby running the risk of bringing down the constitutional structure itself this Court may exercise judicial restraint and leave
the matter to the better judgment of the people of the country or their representatives in the Parliament to appropriately deal with the delinquent. After all the ultimate ownership of the Constitution and of its organs, institutions, mechanisms and processes rests
with the people of the country and there may be situations where the people themselves may be better suited to force a recalcitrant to obey the Constitution. It may be advantageous to reproduce here the relevant words of the
Preamble to the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, 1973:
“we, the people of Pakistan ------- Do hereby, through
our representatives in the National Assembly, adopt,
enact and give to ourselves, this Constitution”.
