You will not get a fairer, more impartial judgment than this anywhere in the world:

Islamic Republic of Pakistan v Zardari & Ors [2006] EWHC 2411 (Comm) (06 October 2006)

Mr Justice Collins:
“I do not accept the argument for Mr Zardari that Pakistan is the appropriate forum. I give very little weight to the pending criminal proceedings in Pakistan, and the fact that the charges relate (inter alia) to the acquisition of the Rockwood Estate.”

**Looks like he wanted the proceedings shifted to Pakistan, so that he could be his own judge. **

“There is, in my judgment, a reasonable prospect of Pakistan establishing that (a) Mr Zardari and/or Ms Bhutto instructed Mr Schlegelmilch and Mr Howard to facilitate the purchase and refurbishment of the Rockwood Estate; (b) that advice was sought from Mr Wilamowski, with the object (among others) of concealing the beneficial ownership of the Rockwood Estate; (d) that the funds used to refurbish the Rockwood Estate were the proceeds of payments by SGS and Cotecna; (e) that those payments were the fruits of corruption; (f) that the funds used to purchase the Rockwood Estate were also the fruits of corruption; and (g) that the defendant companies (through Mr Zardari) were aware of all relevant matters.”

There’s our democracy! Long live democracy and political integrity in the person of Mr Zardari!

That English judge was on the ISI’s payroll.
