The AJK SCBA President said there were numerous cases in the Supreme Court of Azad Jammu and Kashmir that could not be heard by the present judges, for which the appointment of an ad hoc judge was implemented, but objections were raised by some circles that the procedure for the appointment of an ad hoc judge was also the same as for the appointment of a permanent judge.
