Writing to Swiss magistrate equal to insulting nation: Latif Khosa

The Prime Ministers Adviser on Law, Latif Khosa said that asking a Swiss magistrate to try President Zardari is tantamount to insulting the people of Pakistan. Participating in a discussion on the NRO on a private TV channel programme, Khosa said there is a misperception that that the government is not implementing the Supreme Court order on the Swiss case. He said the government has invoked a constitutional remedy under Article 188 by requesting the Supreme Court to review its decision. That in no way amounts to disobeying the court, he said. Khosa also added that there are several instances where the apex court had reviewed its decisions which includes the Nawaz Sharif disqualification case.
