Speaking at Lahore High Court, Gohar expressed concern over the judicial backlog, stating that 2.3 million cases are pending before the subordinate judiciary nationwide, including 814,000 criminal cases. In Punjab alone, he noted, 275,000 criminal cases remain unresolved.
He said the mounting pendency reflects a judicial system under strain and highlights the urgent need for institutional reforms.
On the political situation, Gohar stressed that PTI would continue to seek legal remedies for the release of its founding chairman.
“We will keep pursuing his (Imran’s) release through the courts,” he said.
“When political leaders meet, they talk about the country and the parliament,” he added, noting that “there is nothing unusual if someone visits Shah Mehmood Qureshi, especially when he is unwell.”
