Biloo Bhaiya, how can the judges send a few do not have the backing of the brass ?
So now the old tricks will come in play to buy time
So this is what its come to now. The great Aitzaz Ahsan tells the court he is sick and cant travel to buy time.
This has become a farce. Nothing is going to be achieved unless the judges have the guts to send few people to prison and hang a few. Then only we can try to get back on track.
Mr. Aitzaz how long you will save Mr. PM. This is wealth of Pakistani and now you are equally partner of Mr. Zardari and Gilani.
