Zardari describes former CJP as 'political judge'

Pakistan People's Party Co-chairman and former president Asif Ali Zardari has claim that former chief justice Iftikhar Chaudhry wanted to become President of Pakistan. Asif Ali Zardari said that he always told his aides that former CJP Iftikhar Chaudhry was a political judge and they should not pay heed to his advice or worry about his actions.
He made these remarks while talking to media alongside the former Prime Minister Syed Yousaf Raza Gilani and former Minister for Religious Affairs Hamid Saeed Kazmi. On this occasion, he also congratulated Hamid Saeed Kazmi as the latter was released from Adiala jail on Wednesday.
"The judge whose video went viral on social media was a political judge and I will ask him to have some shame," Zardari said. Former chief justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Chaudhary and his son, Arsalan Iftikhar, faced an awkward situation at Jeddah airport when the duo found to be violating the queue, only to be strongly resisted by one of the passengers. Answering a question about the possible verdict of Panama papers case, the PPP co-chairman said that Benazir Bhutto Shaheed used to say that courts have never ruled against the Sharifs.
"Benazir Bhutto used to say that courts have never ruled in our favour and against Sharifs," said Zardari. He said his party would hold rallies in Punjab in order to secure victory in Punjab in the next election " no matter whether they (the PML-N government) gives us security or not". "We will take Punjab from them and will show them how to run the province, whole Punjab is ours and the people of the province will support us", said Zardari.
