Senior PPP leader, Senator Aitzaz Ahsan on Wednesday disclosed that in the past he was in favour of writing a letter to the Swiss authorities to reopen graft cases against President Asif Ali Zardari. Talking to a private news channel in New York, Barrister Aitzaz Ahsan said that the matter pertaining to writing a letter to the Swiss authorities to reopen graft cases against the president has become so complex for both government and the Apex Court to acquit from the matter, adding he was also in favour of writing the letter but after looking into the complexity of the matter his thinking changed. Aitzaz Ahsan predicted no signs for new general elections in the country in coming days, adding that new election would be held in the country after the third prime minister. Criticising the US policies towards Pakistan, Aitzaz said that outstanding matters between Pakistan and the US would be solved peacefully if the US changed its policy towards Pakistan. “The United States is responsible for the deteriorating law and order situation in Pakistan as the White House called some people its friend, whom it announced foes and put head bounty on them in the past,” Aitzaz Ahsan said. He said that police failed to maintain law and order in Pakistan as the remains of British imperialism were present in the shape of bureaucracy.
