The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Monday adjourned the hearing of former Prime Minister Syed Yousaf Raza Gilani’s appeal for three weeks.
An intra court appeal was filed to the apex court by Gilani last week against his disqualification in the NRO implementation case.
A seven-member bench of the apex court had disqualified the former PM from holding any public office for five years over refusing to write a letter to Swiss authorities for reopening of cases against President Asif Ali Zardari.
On Monday, the court observed that the former PM seeks review of court verdict pertaining to his disqualification; however, the bench has clarified that the appeal couldn’t be taken up unless the same sets aside his conviction
Gilani’s appeal hearing adjourned for three weeks
