KOHAT: The local judiciary is struggling to dispose of cases despite the additional burden of thousands of displaced persons, who have reached here from Darra Adamkhel and Orakzai Agency and registered cases in the district.
Talking to ‘The News’, Judicial Magistrate Mudassir Shah Tirmizi and Family Court Judge Wajiha Mushtaq Malik said since May 2 the district judiciary had disposed of 4,610 out of 9,274 cases, adding, the judiciary had won the public trust with the speedy disposal.
They added that indepen-dent judiciary and prompt dispensation of justice could help pull the country out of chaos, as the district judiciary was giving short dates for hearing the cases.
The civil judges, judicial magistrates and sessions judges have been directed to dispose of 2008 cases by December 30, 2009, they added. The judicial magistrate complained there were two official residences for the judges in Kohat, which were not meeting their requirements. He suggested establishment of a separate colony for the judges.
