Pakistan's government on Monday agreed to reinstate Iftikhar Chaudhry as chief justice to defuse a political crisis and end Long March protest that was threatening to turn into violent confrontation. Hundreds of jubilant lawyers and activists gathered outside Chaudhry's Islamabad residence and danced and chanted "Long live the chief justice". But some were somewhat skeptical about the decision.
