ISLAMABAD: Justice (retd) Shahid Jameel Khan, who resigned from the Lahore High Court (LHC) in February, has alleged that former LHC chief justice Ameer Bhatti was using his position to politically benefit his son-in-law, Ali Afzal Sahi, who is associated with the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). Months after handing in his resignation, Khan sat down for a bombshell interview with host Azaz Syed for his social media talk show, “Talk Shock”, in which he exposed his fellow judges. “The decline of the judiciary in Punjab began during the tenure of Justice Sardar Shamim as LHC chief justice, who was close to the PML-N (Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz) and was readjusted after retirement,” Justice (retd) Khan claimed in the interview.
