Babar Awan is no longer the same spirited Awan, after being ditched by Zardari. Now he is seen moving around all by himself without the crowds who normally used to be surrounding him when he very frequently used to ridicule the Honourable Supreme Court of Pakistan. Today he looks to be an example of misery only because he had sold his conscience instead of responding to his conscience. He has been a very loud mouth piece of his erstwhile corrupt masters who have used him and then discarded him. I have no doubt that he will get an appropriate dose from the court as the fate of people like him has to be such which should be lesson for others.
