    “against former prime minister Shaukat Aziz, “

    Why only against Shaukat Aziz?

    What about the other offenders such as:-

    “former president Pervez Musharraf, former interior minister Aftab Ahmed Khan Sherpao, former governor Balochistan Owais Ahmed Ghani, former chief minister Jam Mohammad Yousaf and former home minister Shoaib Ahmed Nosherwani.”???

    @Salman: Only Zardari has immunity not Gilani. Gilani was not just prosecuted but convicted by the court.
