Some top
leaders of lawyers' movement blamed in media that some elements among
lawyers had turned against the movement. This allegation is unfounded.
In fact large number of lawyers turned against leadership and not
against the movement. During movement it was seen that leaders from the
very start were ambitious and greedy. Some of them got lucrative
appointments and became judges. Some participated in elections in
violation of resolutions passed by bar councils. And some including
Ahsan did not support Wajihuddin during presidential elections.
Finally, on night 13/14 June, 2008, the same key leaders surrendered
unconditionally, before establishment at Islamabad Paltan Maidan as
pre-planned to please their respective political bosses. The leaders
having loyalties with their respective political parties will further
betray lawyers' community and civil society. They are biased and not
honest and sincere to movement cause. They are there to promote
political agenda of their parties. Lawyers should be
well aware of these black sheep. Unless top leadership is not honest
and sincere movement will not succeed. It may also be mentioned that no
political leader is in favor of independent judiciary. So lawyers, who
are politicians as well, fall in the same category. They are just using
lawyers for their self interests in the name of restoration of deposed
judges.
