Chief Justice of Pakistan Qazi Faez Isa convened a full court meeting of the Supreme Court judges over a letter sent to him by six Islamabad High Court judges.
In the letter, the judges have accused the country’s intelligence agencies of meddling with judicial affairs and pressuring the judges.

Sources told Aaj News that the judges examined the letter and discussed taking the matter to a full court bench of the Supreme Court or the Supreme Judicial Council.
