Board of Justice

How in Pakistan only one Justice is giving final verdict? There should be panel of 5 justice. The majority opinion should be considered as final verdict.

It is not that only one justice is giving the final verdict. The Chief Justice always sits with a bench. The Chief Justice is only the first among the equals. In most cases he sits with a larger bench comprising five to seven fellow judges. The decisions are given by the bench and not the chief justice alone.
