Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader Senator Aitzaz Ahsan has expressed reservations over the contempt of court bill. Talking to reporters on Tuesday outside the Parliament House, he said he had conveyed his reservations to the party. The PPP leader said he was not consulted when the legislation was being made nor did the contempt bill contain his opinions. Aitzaz said he was leaving for New Delhi on July 12 and would not appear as Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf’s lawyer in the NRO implementation case. The National Assembly on Monday night passed the Contempt of Court Bill, 2012, under Article 248 (1), exempting all government office-holders, including the prime minister and all other ministers from court proceedings under contempt charges.
