ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, March 16, SPA -- All judges sacked by Pakistan's previous president, including Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, will be reinstated, Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani announced Monday after days of massive protests by lawyers demanding government action. "As per my commitment and the commitment of [President] Asif Ali Zardari, I announce the reinstatement of all deposed judges," Gilani said in his address Monday. In addition, Gilani said the government is seeking a review of a court ruling last month that disqualified opposition leader Nawaz Sharif and his brother from public office and ensnared the country in a political crisis, CNN reported. Gilani also said protesters arrested over the past few days will be released. Hundreds of lawyers held protests over the past week between Karachi and Islamabad, which demonstrators had planned to cap with a sprawling sit-in at the parliament building in Islamabad on Monday. Following Gilani's announcement, the lawyers' movement canceled its demonstration and replaced with it with a celebration march and rally scheduled for Monday.--MORE www.spa.gov.sa/644759
