In his last term CJ Iftekhar was all over the govt. Taking suo motos on Steel Mill, missing persons, farm houses, inflation etc etc. All very important and very popular with the people of Pakistan.
I think it was this sole reason that people rallied behind thinking that CJ would eventually help them by keeping a close tab on the govt.
However the CJ-Version 2 has been quite a disappointment to many. Others than few NS payback decisions, nothing significant has happened from the Supreme Court. CJ backed off from the petrol tax ( Fuel prices raised again yesterday ). Mush issue pushed back to parliament. No news on NRO, missing person, and May 12. No action on all the corruption 'allegations', sugar scandal, inflation, load shedding etc etc.
Has he been told by the boss Holbroke not mess with the 'system' and just do time pass or is he waiting for the right moment?
