Peshawar High Court Terminates District Judge Over Corruption Charges

The Peshawar High Court has dismissed a district judge, Syed Asghar Shah, from service after corruption charges against him were proved through investigation.

The court ordered that the judge be dismissed from service in accordance with the Government Civil Servant Rules 2011 and ordered further proceedings to recover the embezzled funds.
