SC takes up Asif's case today

Published November 22, 2004

ISLAMABAD, Nov 21: A full bench of the Supreme Court, headed by Chief Justice Nazim Hussain Siddiqui, will take up the bail application of former senator and PPP leader Asif Ali Zardari in the BMW car reference on Monday.

Barrister Aitzaz Ehsan, Farooq H. Naek, Dr Babar Awan and Shafqat Abbasi would appear before the court on behalf of Mr Zardari.

Prominent legal and political personalities are of the view that the apex court will decide in Mr Zardari's favour and release him as he has either been acquitted or granted bail in all other cases filed against him, except BMW reference. -PPI
