Qazi Faez Isa takes oath as 29th Chief Justice of Pakistan
Justice Qazi Faez Isa took oath as the 29th chief justice of Pakistan on Sunday after the retirement of Umar Ata Bandial.
He was administered the oath of office by President Arif Alvi during a ceremony at Aiwan-i-Sadr in Islamabad. Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaarul Haq Kakar and Chief of Army Staff Asim Munir were also in attendance.
The ceremony began with the recitation of the Holy Quran, following which the notification for Justice Isa’s appointment was read out. The president then administered the oath to Justice Isa.
The oath-taking ceremony was attended by the caretaker prime minister, services chiefs, cabinets members, sitting and retired judges and lawyers.
Top court judges Justice Ayesha Malik, Justice Shahid Waheed, Justice Jamal Khan Mandokhail, Justice Aminuddin Khan, Justice Athar Minallah, Justice Mazahir Ali Akbar Naqvi, Justice Muhammad Ali Mazhar and Justice Yayha Afridi attended the swearing in ceremony.
A day earlier, outgoing CJP Umar Ata Bandial reportedly held a farewell meeting with the officers and staff of the Supreme Court on Saturday.
In his brief speech on the occasion, CJP Bandial expressed his best wishes for his successor, fellow judges and the staff.
Tears rolled down his cheeks, as CJP Bandial likened himself to the setting sun. Reportedly, the outgoing CJP has vacated his official residence at the Judges Colony in Islamabad.
It is important to mention here that Umar Ata Bandial served the apex judicial office for over 19 months after his appointment on Feb 2, 2022.
His successor, Justice Isa, will serve as the CJP for over a year, until Oct 25, 2024. He took the oath as a Supreme Court judge on Sept 5, 2014.
