The Sindh Bar Council has announced a province-wide strike on June 27, 2026, condemning rising harassment, violence, and unlawful treatment of lawyers across Sindh. The decision follows the re-arrest of senior advocates Idris Alvi and Muhammad Salman immediately after their bail release, with authorities reportedly failing to produce them in court—raising serious due process and constitutional concerns.
The council has called on all bar associations to fully observe the strike and boycott court proceedings, while demanding protection for the legal fraternity and action against those responsible. It strongly condemned all forms of intimidation and illegal detention, urging law enforcement to handle cases involving lawyers with fairness and professionalism.
