But the CJP formed a five-member bench, led by him, to hear the cases and stayed the proceedings of the government-backed judicial panel.

One of the audio leaks involves a conversation of CJP's mother-in-law.

Writing on her social media account, Maryam expressed strong concern over the CJ Supreme Court of Pakistan hearing the case of his mother-in-law. This is a clear case of conflict of interest.

Underlining that no one can be a judge in his own cause, she said that cannot be possible, The News reported.
