LHC allows Qamar Zaman Kaira to meet Asif Zardari on Nov 25
LAHORE (Dunya News) – Lahore High Court (IHC) on Thursday has allowed Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) leader Qamar Zaman Kaira to hold meeting with party’s co-chairman and former president Asif Ali Zardari. While hearing the petition filed by PPP’s Kaira, the court has permitted him to meet the ex-president on November 25.
It is to be mentioned here that PPP lawyers and chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari had failed to convince Zardari to apply for bail plea in National Accountability Bureau (NAB) case against him.
Zardari said, "It’s my case and only I will decide about it. Let’s see what government of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) will do with me now."
Afterwards, the senior PPP leaders had asked Bilawal to allow them to agree the party co-chairman on filing the bail.
Furthermore, the PPP leadership had also written an application to form private medical board for the checkup of ex-president.
PPP’s application stated that doctors have pointed out Zardari’s severe health issues, adding that uncontrolled sugar level can create problems for him. Government doctors also suggested to get help from a neurologist, the application told.
The PPP said that getting proper medical care is basic and legal right of every prisoner. On October 22, 2018, Zardari was brought to Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (Pims) from Adiala jail and admitted to the cardiology department’s VIP ward.
The former president had complaints of backache, weakness and anxiety.
