Asif Zardari gets a blow from the Supreme Court

ISLAMABAD - The Supreme Court gives a blow to the former President Asif Ali Zardari.

SC on Tuesday summoned the asset details of former president Asif Ali Zardari and his children within 15 days.

A three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Mian Saqib Nisar heard Zardari’s review petition against the Supreme Court verdict summoning details of his assets in relation to the National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) case.

On August 29, the apex court had summoned details of the former president’s assets from the past 10 years while hearing a petition related to the NRO, which was passed by Musharraf in 2007.

As the hearing went under way, the court directed, “Zardari should submit details of inherited assets.”
