A seven-member special bench of the Supreme Court, headed by Justice Nasirul Mulk, will today (Wednesday) resume hearing on a contempt of court case against Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani for not implementing the court’s December 16, 2009 order in the NRO case. Aitzaz Ahsan, counsel for the prime minister will start his arguments in the case against the PM for not writing a letter to the Swiss authorities for reopening of graft cases against President Asif Ali Zardari. In response to a show cause notice issued to him to explain why contempt of court proceedings should not be initiated against him, Gilani on January 19 had appeared before the court and stated that the president enjoyed complete immunity, not only in Pakistan but in the world as enunciated by the constitution.
