The first complaint was lodged by Sabghatullah Shah, a Peshawar High Court lawyer, regarding Afridi’s conduct as a PHC judge in 2016. It was dismissed unanimously at the council’s May 14 session.

The second complaint came from Karachi resident Amjad Hussain Durrani, who alleged that a Supreme Court case was dismissed without hearing, constituting misconduct. The council rejected this claim too.

A third complaint by Kamran Khan of Karachi alleged his petition was dismissed without being heard. It was unanimously ruled inadmissible.

Muhammad Masood, from Vehari, filed the fourth complaint alleging a civil case judgment delivered in March 2023 violated the law and amounted to misconduct. The council also dismissed this.
