Pakistan’s Supreme Court today convicted Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani for contempt of court for refusing to revive graft cases against President Asif Ali Zardari and sentenced him to a symbolic “till the rising of the court”, sparing him a jail term.
During proceedings in courtroom number 4 that lasted less than 10 minutes, the seven-judge bench headed by Justice Nasir-ul-Mulk announced the verdict and said Gilani’s sentence would last “till the rising of the court” or till the completion of the hearing.
