Former PM Yousaf Raza Gillani lands in hot waters

ISLAMABAD - Former PM Yousaf Raza Gillani lands in hot water over the corruption case.

An accountability court has announced on Monday that it will hear a National Accountability Bureau (NAB) reference against former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani after completing a case against former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.

According to details, both the former premiers Gilani and Nawaz met at Accountability Court-I as they appeared for the hearing of NAB references filed against them.

Gilani told accountability court Judge Arshad Malik, “You can hear Mian Sb’s case first, I will wait.”

However, Judge Malik replied, “Mian Sb’s case will take the whole day.”

The court then issued a notice to NAB once again on Gilani’s petition seeking permanent exemption from appearing for hearings of the reference and announced that it will hear the case against the PPP leader after wrapping up the references against Nawaz.

The hearing of the reference against Gilani was then adjourned till November 23.
