Express April 11, 2011

The Federal Law Ministry submitted an application Monday in the Lahore High Court requesting it to provide the audio and video recording of former prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's murder trial.

The ministry put forward the request in order to study the case thoroughly as the earlier proceedings of the case were in camera.

On Saturday, Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry constituted a bench of the Supreme Court to take up the presidential reference of the case.

President Asif Ali Zardari had sent the reference to the apex court for revisiting the case of ZAB under Article 186 of the Constitution.
