ISLAMABAD (92 News) - Accountability Court Judge Nasir Javed Rana granted President Asif Zardari presidential immunity from criminal proceedings in the Park Lane and Toshakhana references.
In the written verdict issued on Asif Zardari's pleas for presidential references on Saturday, the court ruled that the cases against Asif Zardari cannot be proceeded until he is the president. "Under the Article 248(2) of the Constitution, no case can be proceeded against the President," it ruled.
Asif Zardari was charged for receiving a loan of Rs1.5 billion released for Parthenon Private Limited 'with ill intention'. The money was later claimed to have been transferred for his personal use through fake bank accounts.
The NAB had accused him of causing a loss of Rs3.77 billion to the national exchequer.
