Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry (Urdu: افتخار محمد چودھری) (born 12 December 1948) became the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Pakistan in 2005. His status is currently vague, as he does not enjoy the privileges nor does he serve the duties of a Chief Justice. Law Minister Wasi Zafar, however, has said it is technically incorrect to refer to Chaudhry as non-functional.
