Karachi - QNA
Pakistani Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf arrived at the country’s Supreme Court on Monday for the latest round of the Supreme Court hearing. The court ordered him in July to comply with an order to write to authorities in Switzerland asking them to reopen multimillion dollar corruption probes into President Asif Ali Zardari. The court gave Ashraf two weeks to indicate whether he would write to the Swiss before adjourning the case to try to find a way out of the stand-off. The government has resisted judges’ demands to reopen investigations into Zardari for more than two years, arguing he enjoys immunity as head of state. The allegations against Zardari date back to the 1990s, when he is suspected of laundering USD12 million allegedly paid in bribes.
