Per Asif Saeed Khan Khosa, J.

(a) Constitution of Pakistan (1973), Article 189

It goes without saying that a suggestion or a recommendation made by this Court in a judgment, though entitled to due respect, deference and consideration, does not travel beyond a suggestion or a recommendation and it does not by itself assume the status of law. By its nature and form a suggestion or a recommendation is simply what it is, nothing more and nothing less. In this view of the matter this aspect of the case may not detain us any further. [p. 588]E

(b) Constitution of Pakistan (1973), Article 184(3)

Apart from that any length of service unlawfully utilized is not long enough to deter this Court from pronouncing upon the legality of the same when the matter is properly brought before it for adjudication. [p. 589]G
