Won’t allow trial of Benazir’s grave: Firdous Awan

ISLAMABAD: Federal Information Minister Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan has said that the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) will not allow trial of Benazir Bhutto’s grave by writing letter to Swiss authorities to reopen graft cases.

Speaking to reports outside the Supreme Court of Pakistan on Monday, She said that the president enjoyed complete immunity and court orders could not be implemented in this regard.

She said that the government respected the court as the PPP had rendered great sacrifices for the independence of the judiciary. When asked if the president enjoyed immunity in civil proceedings she refused to answer saying the matter was legal and she could comment.
