The Supreme Court bans the use of word ‘sir’ for government officials.
The word ‘sir’ was used with the DSP during the hearing of the murder case of a 9-year-old child in Mardan.
In this regard, the Supreme Court said that the use of the word “Saheb” does not reflect an independent nation. Therefore, Supreme Court bans the use of word ‘Sir’.
It was said by the Supreme Court that the public servant considers himself above accountability by the word of the sir. A copy of the decision should be sent to IG and Advocate General KP and Home Department KP.
In the Supreme Court, Chief Justice Qazi Faiz Isa said that the police did not do anything on the investigation. The Supreme Court has been turned into a magistrate’s court.

The Chief Justice of Pakistan said that this is a joke, there should be no arguments and we just keep looking at the faces of the lawyers, was a file so heavy that 2 officers came from KP to Islamabad? Petrol and TADA free while printing from WhatsApp is expensive?
He said, “Why are the people supporting the police?” A child died and the situation of the police investigation is this. After doing a poor investigation, they say that the court let the accused go. He was a poor man’s child, so the police did not consider it necessary to investigate seriously.
The Chief Justice asked the police officer of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa why you have such a big belly? You are a force.
Chief Justice Qazi Faiz Isa said that once upon a time there was a ballot.
In the court, Additional Advocate General KP said that DSP can tell the details of the case.
Chief Justice Qazi Faiz Isa said that you have spoiled everyone’s mind by saying sir, this is DSP, no sir, this is unworthy DSP.
The Chief Justice expressed his anger and said that this is the standard of your inquiry and investigation.
On taking information from the investigation officer in the court room, the Chief Justice expressed his anger on the Additional Advocate General and said that he has taken the court room as his office. Doing office work in court shows irresponsibility.
The Chief Justice inquired that what is the evidence against the accused?
DSP Investigation Peshawar said in the court that 2 witnesses saw the child going with the accused.
The Chief Justice of Pakistan said that you could have put 4 witnesses, where is the evidence?
DSP Investigation Peshawar said the child used to work in his uncle’s workshop.
The Chief Justice said that how can an uncle let his nephew go with someone else? Why did the workshop inform the child’s family after 16 days? Why did the police not record the statements of the workshop employees? The worst investigation is done by KP police.
The Supreme Court said that the police did not conduct any investigation to determine those responsible for the child’s death, this is the best case to give an example of poor investigation.

Later, the Supreme Court granted bail to the accused in the murder case.
The case was heard by a 3-member bench headed by the Chief Justice.
It should be noted that the case registered against accused Javed Khan in Peshawar for the murder of 9-year-old Hamza.
