The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has recently restructured its administrative and officers' selection committees, marking a significant change in its internal governance. According to The Frontier Post, Justice Khadim Hussain Soomro has been removed from these committees, with Justice Muhammad Asif being inducted into the administration committee, which will now operate under Chief Justice Sarfraz Dogar. This reconstitution, effective immediately, also involves the formation of a new selection board comprising Justice Azam Khan and Justice Inam Amin Minhas. These changes are part of a broader institutional framework aimed at overseeing the recruitment and promotion of IHC officers in grade 16 and above. Justice Soomro, who was transferred from the Sindh High Court in early 2025, had been serving as a permanent judge since April 2024. The IHC, under the Islamabad High Court (Amendment) Act, 2024, consists of 12 judges plus the Chief Justice, with a mandatory retirement age of 62 years for judges.
