A new statue that has been placed on top of a Manhattan courthouse is sparking controversy among New Yorkers as well as a former White House adviser.

The statue was made by Pakistani-American artist Shahzia Sikander, 53, and has been erected on the roof of the courthouse of the Appellate Division, First Judicial Department of the State Supreme Court, alongside statues of a string of other famous lawgivers.
