A judge in Pakistan resigned before a disciplinary hearing, but the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) decided to hear the case anyway and found him guilty of misconduct.
This has caused debate about how judges should be held accountable. In the past, resigning could avoid punishment, but this decision suggests judges can still face consequences even if they resign.
Some people believe this is a positive step, while others worry it could be unfair to judges. The long-term impact of this decision on Pakistan’s justice system remains to be seen.
