Aitzaz sees no solution to govt-judiciary standoff

Aitzaz says he does not see any way‚ as both the sides are sticking to their respective stands. Aitzaz Ahsan, a prominent lawyer and PPP leader, has said the Supreme Court should accept that letter to the Swiss authorities will only be written when Asif Ali Zardari will no longer be the President. Talking to newsmen in Islamabad on Tuesday‚ he said the court should review its decision on the NRO Implementation case‚ as it has done in several other cases. Aitzaz Ahsan said Asif Ali Zardari is a constitutionally elected President and enjoys complete immunity under the constitution and international laws. He said no body can write letter against his own President. He said it has never happened that a country has presented its President before a foreign magistrate. To a question‚ Aitzaz Ahsan said he does not see any way‚ as both the sides are sticking to their respective stands. He said the court has no option‚ but to disqualify the Prime Minister he if does not write letter to Swiss authorities.
