LHC resumes Zardari contempt case hearing

The case filed against President Asif Ali Zardari for holding dual offices resumed on Tuesday at The Lahore High Court (LHC).
Wasim Sajjad, counsel for the federation maintained that the president was not completely immune and could be impeached if he had committed something against the law.
President Zardari was issued a notice on September 5th 2012, in which he was alleged to have not abided by the courts orders to resign from his political office. Hence, contempt charges were filed.
Despite their being a verdict against the use of a dual office, President Zardari still enjoys the benefit of both offices.
