Pakistan seeks to remove judge after bizarre 'hang corpse in the street' order for Musharraf

Pakistan's government is seeking to remove the leader of a three-judge panel that sentenced former military ruler Pervez Musharraf to death on charges of treason and added a rider about his corpse, Law Minister Farogh Naseem said on Thursday. The judge, Waqar Ahmad Seth, had violated judicial conduct by issuing the bizarre order that Musharraf's body should hang in public if he dies before his execution. The federal government had decided to approach the Supreme Judicial council.
