Pakistani premier faces contempt charges
Friday, Feb 03, 2012 Filed Under :Planet Talk Card News
Those wishing to make cheap calls to Pakistan should be aware the country’s prime minister faces contempt of court charges at the Supreme Court.
Mr Yousaf Raza Gilani will arrive in the court of February 13th facing contempt of court charges for refusing to re-open an investigation into president Asif Ali Zardari.
If prime minister Gilani is proven guilty of contempt, he could lose his position as premier, as well as face up to six months behind bars.
Mr Gilani has chosen not to allow authorities to re-investigate corruption allegations against President Zardari and his late wife Benazir for offences committed during the 1990s.
The pair are believed to have received kickbacks from a Swiss company during the decade, with a Swiss conviction in 2003 overturned on appeal.
The prime minister will also come under scrutiny for a memo sent to the US government last year, in which is said to have asked the western power to intervene in the Pakistani army’s control of the defence policy.
In other news, minister for foreign affairs Hina Rabbani Khar recently denied rumours Pakistan was backing a Taliban plan to regain control of Afghanistan.
