      <title>27th Constitutional Amendment challenged in Lahore High Court</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330444200/27th-constitutional-amendment-challenged-in-lahore-high-court</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The 27th Constitutional Amendment has been challenged in the Lahore High Court, with the petitioner terming it incompatible with the fundamental spirit of the Constitution.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Citizen Hassan Latif filed the petition through Advocate Maqset Saleem, naming the prime minister, speaker of the National Assembly, the Ministry of Law, and others as respondents.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The petitioner argued that the current government has yet another amendment to the Constitution, which has already been passed by the Senate.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He maintained that the amendment transfers all powers of the Supreme Court to a proposed Federal Constitutional Court and grants lifetime immunity to the Chief of Defence Staff.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the petition, these provisions directly contradict the essence of the Constitution.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The petitioner urged the court to declare the 27th Amendment unconstitutional and strike it down.&lt;/p&gt;
