CJ is not as corrupt as any parliamentarian. Certainly not a PPP parliamentarian. If CJ is corrupt, PPP can bring about cases against him. He doesnt have immunity.

And he doesnt get a pass. Similarly, why should Zardari, the corrupt in chief get a pass and hide behind immunity? My understanding is that immunity for government officials is meant to protect them from frivolous lawsuits and cases. Its not like they can commit a crime and get away with it. Even Bill Clinton was impeached.

On the one hand you’re saying he is not corrupt & at the same time saying not corrupt as PPP? So, which one is it? Is he corrupt or not & shouldn’t he be investigated for doling out favorable judgements to people who are sending his family to exotic places around the world? Or should we take your/his words that he is not corrupt?

As for the presidential immunity, its the law that president has immunity for prosecution while in the office. Immunity clause is not unique to Pakistan…most countries have similar laws. Btw, Clinton was impeached by the US House controled by Republicans & he was not convicted in the Senate. That is procedure in US & in Pakistan (impeachment & removal of the president from the office, not by the SC, but by the parliament/congress).
