Former President Asif Ali Zardari to be released on bail on medical grounds?

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People’s Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari announced on Monday that the party will submit bail plea for former president Asif Ali Zardari on medical grounds — days after former prime minister Nawaz Sharif was allowed to travel abroad for medical treatment on a bail plea.

The PPP chairman made the announcement during a media talk today, where he said that the party will file a bail plea on medical grounds for the former president who has a case against him in relation to fake bank accounts.

Bilawal Bhutto said that the PPP will not retreat from its political point of view and file a petition until tomorrow.

"We do not trust Pakistani doctors," the PPP chairman told media.

Earlier today, Bilawal Bhutto met with his father who is currently under treatment at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS).
