During the regime of Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq, he formulated a social plan named Society for Medical Care and Rehabilitation of Drug Addicts (SMARDA) to reduce drug addicts in the country. He is claimed to have experienced resistance and threats from drug traders including intimidation. The society served its purpose to some extent when some government hospitals undertook the treatment of drug addicts, and later SMARDA was dissolved in 1995. In 1991, when the Gulf War occurred, he along with volunteer members provided aid to Iraqis.
Served in Pakistan Air Force

Founder of Pakistan Aainee Party
In 1992, Kakakhel announced the launching of a political party called Pakistan Aainee Party. He was chosen its founder President with the manifesto of upholding the Constitution, th supremacy of law, independence of judiciary and rule of law. The party faced unbearable challenges from within and outside the country. The party was dissolved after three years. The agencies, establishment, land lords and the ruling junta left no stone unturned to damage Kakakhel.[1]

Kakakhel was the first[2] to challenge the military takeover of the country by General Pervez Musharraf. In the case of ex-chief Minister NWFP Sardar Mehtab Ahmed Khan Abbassi vide writ petition No.1 of 2000. The coup was challenged before the Peshawar High Court.[3]
Presidential candidate
Feeling that all the agencies and political parties were helping Musharraf's dictatorial rule and Musharraf was going to be elected unopposed in the forthcoming elections to the office of President of Pakistan, Kakakhel announced his candidature for the post of the President.[4] The candidature was welcomed by almost all the pressure groups including army generals and politicians but then all of a sudden the lawyers' movement started against the removal of the Chief Justice of Pakistan, Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry. The lawyers' movement overshadowed the presidential elections and also the candidature of Kakakhel; hence he withdraw his claim to the presidency of the country in the best interests of the country.
Kakakhel also started the Pakistan Jurists' Association in 1990.
In view of the deteriorating peace and security situation in the world and the sufferings and destruction of mankind at its own hands, Kakakhel initiated a new platform to provide the world community with a forum other than U.N.O. to give vent to their feelings and for advancing the cause of humanity to bring peace and security in the world. The forum is called LIPS (Lawyers for International Peace and Security). Lawyers and jurists all along the world will be mobilised towards the path of security for mankind.

He received the title of Senior Advocate from the Supreme Court of Pakistan. It is expressly given in the Supreme Court of Court of Pakistan website in a report by the Registrar Faqir Hussain that since 1947, only 313 advocates of the Supreme Court of Pakistan achieved this title and Kakakhel is said to be the youngest of all. Very few Senior Advocates are practising, mostly because of their old age, involvement in politics or are enjoying their retired life.[10][11]

The candidates includes Yousaf Ayub Khan grand son of General Ayub Khan of Pakistan Tehreek Insaf (PTI) who was also disqualified on the basis that he produced fake degree in 2002 Election and remained in cabinet. Gulzar Khan Former chairman Public Service Commission was also disqualified on the basis that he has not completed 2 years after his retirement but it was clarified in the Court that it was contractual post not a permanent post so he is eligible to contest election from PTI seat from National Assembly "NA-04".[15]
