The bar took this decision unanimously by carrying a resolution in this regard in its general house meeting. The resolution was presented by LHCBA secretary Amir Saeed Rawn. The general house also banned entry of Rajwana to the bar premises through this resolution. The resolution demanded the governor seek pardon from the lawyers’ representatives for allegedly patronising attack on lawyers convention through PML-N lawyers and law officers affiliated with the Punjab and federal government. The bar also demanded the prime minister resign till conclusion of the JIT investigation in Panama Papers matter.

Law officers affiliated with attorney general office, advocate general Punjab office and prosecutor general Punjab office on instigation of Additional Attorney General Naseer Ahmed Bhutta and Punjab governor ransacked convention arrangements in Dr Javed Iqbal Auditorium and damaged bar belongings, he alleged. He said lawyers are united and would continue their movement for rule of law and supremacy of the constitution. Lawyers prayed for departed souls of two lawyers gunned down two years back in Daska by a police official.
