QUETTA: Amid concerns of the opposition over the ‘controvercial’ constitutional package, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has said that his party has assented to the ruling PML-N’s proposal for establishment of a federal constitutional court as yet.

“We have no issue if anyone of the top two judges sits in the constitutional court,” he said while speaking at a Balochistan High Court (BHC) Bar’s session held in Quetta on Tuesday.

Bilawal, the former foreign minister, elucidated that his struggle was for the constitutional amendment and not for the incumbent chief justice, Qazi Faez Isa. “After the struggle of 30 years, we have decided to form a constitutional court.”

Expressing huge respect for Justice Mansoor Ali Shah, he asked if the superior court judge would accept the constitutional court, if the constitution endorsed it.
