What a mess this Govt has got itself into regarding this Swiss letter! The clarification of Justice Ramday and him quoting segments of the NRO judgement clearly shows that the court wasn't asking for any initiation of criminal proceedings against the president! They saw the matter as a civil one and all they wanted was the letter of Malik Qayyum withdrawn and Pakistan to be re-made a civil party to the case and the sole objective was to retrieve the 60 million dollars back to the Pakistan state. So the issue of immunity was irrelevant! Hence no contradiction between writing the letter and immunity!
But now the govt has potentially created a big hole for itself as it has now officially pleaded immunity (when issue of immunity doesn't even arise as per the court judgement) and now the court may interpret article 248 and say the president doesn't have immunity! LOL! (justice Ramday clearly said that immunity has to be claimed in a court of law and the judiciary interprets whether it is valid or not). It shows how the govt didn't have proper legal advisers, if they did all this hoo haa could've been easily avoided. It's another example of the govt creating crises for itself!
If there was no dispute on dismissing the NRO issue.
Why the application for review was admitted in the Supreme Court.
If writing of the disputed letter is a civil matter and this issue has been determined in the first judgement of the Court, why Yoursaf Raza Gilani has been given 15 days time to argue again and re-appear before the court.
Does not this mean - the Court is allowing another review on this issue.
very clearly explained by justice Ramday.No ambiguity. Thank God Kamran did not intevene much which he usually does and let Justice to say freely.(clap)
