Justice Shah Sworn in as Acting Chief Justice of Pakistan

The most senior judge in Pakistan's Supreme Court, Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah, has temporarily become the Acting Chief Justice.

This is because the actual Chief Justice, Yahya Afridi, is away.

The special thing is that the swearing-in happened on a public holiday, Eid, and it wasn't in the usual place, Islamabad; it was in Lahore.

This is a bit unusual because important events like this usually don't happen on holidays or outside the capital.

Justice Shah will be in charge until June 10th, when Chief Justice Afridi returns.
