May write letter without taking advice: Gilani

Premier says he might write letter to Swiss authorities without taking any advice, but not unconstitutionally.

Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani, responding to Supreme Court’s order of writing a letter to Swiss authorities in the NRO implementation case, said that he may write the letter without taking any advice but not unconstitutionally.

Speaking to the media on Sunday, Gilani said: “There are two cases which the media has mixed up. One is the contempt case in which Aitzaz Ahsan is my lawyer. And there is another case, in which I have no lawyer, where the court has asked this [to write the letter].”


Clarifying his earlier statements on how the women workers of Pakistan Peoples Party have supported him in crucial times, the premier said that he had no complaint with the male members and that he was only appreciating the women members on International Women’s Day.

The prime minister also said that there were certain elements conspiring against the government who had spread rumours that the Senate elections will not take place, but “the elections did take place, and on the 12th the Senate chairman and deputy chairman will also be elected.”
