RAWALPINDI: An accountability court, Rawalpindi, on Saturday acquitted former president and PPP Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari in a reference related to his alleged illegal assets in Pakistan and abroad.

Khalid Mehmood Ranjha, the judge of Accountability Court No 1 had accepted the application seeking the acquittal of former president.

PPP’s Farooq H. Naek represented the former president in the court.

Earlier this month, the accountability court had reserved judgement on the petition seeking Zardari’s acquittal.

The court had conducted day-to-day proceedings on the application under section 265-K of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) in the nearly two decade-old corruption reference filed in 2001 and later closed in 2007 under the National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO), issued by the government of retired Gen Pervez Musharraf..

Ex-president Zardari and his late wife and former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, in the reference, had been accused of acquiring assets through illegal means.

Don't feel Zardari is running very hard on Nawaz ..now Balwal is front man of Zardari .. but lill off track from Zardari political agenda ...

Nothing ever gets proven against Zardari. NS had nothing to do with It, this man is a master politician and manipulator and the Frank Underwood of Pakistan.

BB & Zardari were involved in massive corruption in their time of corrupt rule. The previous ppp rule was full of corruption.

Man you are incorrect ... frank underwood was NS ... master of white color crime ... zardari do badmashi out in the open broad day light ... you need courage to grab him nothing else ... i think once hariefs are done (as currently they were backing up zardari) next focus will be on zardari and it has already started ...

He is protected by west.... who better kill him before he goes into hands of Pakistan's investigating authorities.
He is the king pin, once in hands of Pak authorities would prove the pin of a grenade full of information.
