She also said that there was no pressure on former foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi in Raymond Davis case. “When President of Pakistan Asif Ali Zardari has already conveyed to Congress members that Davis case is in court and the court would decide his fate then there shouldn’t be any confusion, the things are very clear,” she told media. She said Qureshi’s statement regarding Davis was not correct rather it was violation of party discipline. She said that Qureshi’s name was in the list of new cabinet members and he was assigned the Ministry of Water and Power but he declined to accept the decision of the leadership and insisted to be the Minister of Foreign Affairs. She said the party would issue him a show cause notice to seek his views and then decide his fate in the light of party rules and regulations.
