The answer to the question can be easily found in Aitzaz Ahsan’s speeches and interviews .If the deposed judges are not brought back to office, no future judiciary will be able to carry on with their duties i.e to pass just decisions, either against or for government, because the harsh treatment given to Chaudary Ifthikar and his team will come back to haunt them when they would be on the verge of making critical decisions. Additionally, people have voted back Nawaz and Zardari who had sometime back had lost popularity due to corruption. Thus, these judges should be given a chance because ,firstly they are not accused of corruption and titlting towards powerful personalites while making decisions,secondly and most importantly, they have proved in their tenure that they are not ready to bow down to the pressures of a monarch.
The test for the judiciary,once reinstated, is the NRO case(which involves Zardari) and Nawaz Sharif’s pending cases. Lets see if Chaudary Ifthikar tilts or brings justice for all.

I wonder why we forget that the restoration of judges ‘disabled’ by Mush to perform their duties is not the question of infringement of the rights of certain judges but of treason against the will of the people as enshrined in Art. 6 of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. If we overlook this there shall be no judiciary, no constitution and, God forbid, no Pakistan.

PCO is the rape of constitution in terms of Art.6 thereof. I therefore wonder when somebody holds the victim (one constrained to submit to the PCO ) and not the rapist as condemnable.

But what can we do. It has been proved once again that power follows through the barrell of a gun.
