Members of the Pakistan Peoples Party Human Rights Cell met and paid tribute to former prime minister.
Members of the Pakistan Peoples Party Human Rights Cell met yesterday and paid tribute to former prime minister Yousaf Raza Gilani for standing up for the constitution, specifically 248(2). “We believe that by doing so, he has not only protected the constitutional office of the president, but has also protected the people and democracy, according to a statement issued by the cell. Without the immunity clause, political and democratic governments would become susceptible to destablisation via the legal route, especially read with articles 62 and 63.”

The PPP is not one to go down without a fight. It is a party that has seen two of its leaders killed in the game of politics. If the Supreme Court keeps summoning and disqualifying PMs, the only institution to lose its credibility will be the courts. There is only so much intervention a public that is so far divided on the issue will stomach before it changes its opinion about the objectives of the court. This will lend the PPP a sympathetic light in time for the upcoming elections, which many predict may come before March 2013. There are too many flip sides to this coin so every player must tread carefully.
