Details on the Gilani contempt case: A seven-judge bench of the Supreme Court in Pakistan reserved its verdict in the contempt of court case against Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani, DawnNews reported.

 

The verdict would be announced on Thursday and the prime minister has also been summoned for the occasion. During Tuesday's hearing, newly-appointed Attorney General Pakistan Irfan Qadir claimed that no law addressing contempt of court existed in Pakistan.

 

Gilani was charged with contempt of court on Feb 13 over the government's two-year refusal to write to authorities in Switzerland asking them to re-open corruption cases against President Zardari.
