Nasim Hasan Shah (Urdu: ) (15 April 1929 – 3 February 2015) was a Pakistani judge who was Chief Justice of Pakistan. He best known for his role in the verdict against Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, the first democratically elected Prime Minister of Pakistan, a verdict resulting in death penalty that is widely believed in Pakistan to be a judicial murder. His other notable verdict was restoration of the parliament of Pakistan dissolved by then President Ghulam Ishaq Khan. The Supreme Court held that dissolution order was based on an incorrect appreciation of the role assigned to the president and of the powers vested in him by the constitution. The Prime Minister is not answerable to the President. In fact, it is the president who is obliged to act on the advice of the Prime Minister except when he enjoys discretionary powers.
