Senator Raza Rabbani on Tuesday censured newly-appointed Attorney General of Pakistan (AGP) Barrister Shehzad Ata Elahi. Elahi came under Rabbani’s radar for clarifying Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial’s “honest prime minister” remarks in a letter to Law Minister Azam Nazir Tarar. Rabbani, during today’s Senate meeting, said that if the AGP is so supportive of the parliament and judiciary, then he must also “defend the parliament when it is attacked by the court”.
