Act on Zardari case, Pak SC tells PM again

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan SC has again ordered PM Yousaf Raza Gilani to write to the Swiss to reopen a graft case against president Asif Ali Zardari without seeking legal advice.
The apex court directed Gilani to file his statement by March 19 or appear before it on March 21. “If the PM does not submit a statement, arguments will commence on March 21. If he makes a statement , the final arguments will begin from March 21,” Gilani’s lawyer Aitzaz Ahsan said.
The PM is facing contempt proceedings over his refusal to write to the Swiss.
