ISLAMABAD, Nov 30: The Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) has welcomed the verdict of an accountability court in Karachi quashing the PIA reference against former prime minister Benazir Bhutto and termed it a “triumph of justice.”

The accountability court on Wednesday acquitted all the defendants in the case, saying the prosecution had failed to establish its charges against the accused, says a statement issued by the PPP media centre here on Wednesday.
