Karachi University Cancels IHC Justice Jahangiri’s LLB, Imposes Three-Year Debarment

The action rests on a syndicate‑backed unfair‑means finding that is now under court challenge.

Overview

  • Registrar Imran Ahmed Siddiqui issued a university notification on Friday with the vice chancellor’s approval formally canceling the LLB result and degree.
  • The notification withdraws enrollment number AIL-7124/87 and exam seat 22857 and bars Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri from admissions and university exams for three years.
  • Karachi University stated the Islamabad High Court judge was never officially a student of Islamia Law College, Karachi, in 1989.
  • The decision has been officially communicated to the Islamabad and Sindh High Courts, the Higher Education Commission, the Sindh Bar Council, and other authorities.
  • Court proceedings remain active, with the Sindh High Court having earlier suspended KU’s actions and a constitutional bench later dismissing related petitions for non‑compliance, while appeals move toward Supreme Court review.
