Three ATC judges removed by Sindh restored to office by court

ATC judges reinstated by the Federal Constitutional Court will serve their fixed terms, as the new 65-year age limit was held not to apply to them retrospectively.

The Federal Constitutional Court struck down the Sindh government notification that removed three ATC judges.

The court held that a 65-year age limit cannot cut short fixed terms of judges appointed before the 2025 amendment.

Muhammad Yamin will complete his two-and-a-half-year term as judge of ATC-IV in Karachi.
