ISLAMABAD: Accountability Court Judge Nasir Javed Rana has granted immunity to President Asif Ali Zardari in the Park Lane and Toshakhana references.
The court issued a written decision on the president’s petition and halted all proceedings against Asif Ali Zardari.
The judgment noted that the president sought immunity as per Article 248 (2) of the Constitution, following which no case could be registered or action taken against the petitioner.
The written order added that the prosecution raised no objection to the president’s plea, hence it was approved and case proceedings were halted until the end of Zardari’s tenure as president of Pakistan. The Park Lane case accused Zardari of influencing relevant authorities during his tenure as the president from 2008 to 2013 to allegedly obtain loans for his front companies.
