Islamabad: The Supreme Court of Pakistan has said that the federation the prime minister and the Chief of Army Staff have not denied presence of memo.
A nine-judge bench of the apex court headed by the Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry was hearing the case.
Former US ambassador to US Hussain Haqqan’s lawyer Asma Jehangir has been asked to complete her argument.
Asma Jehangir said memo case is not related to fundamental rights present in the constitution. She said if it is assumed that Haqqani is related to the issue, even then it comes under s criminal case.
The CJ assured the counsel that the court will assure a transparent inquiry under its supervision.
 Jehangir said if Haqqani faces the charges of writing the memo, then the case should be filed against the president as her client is only being used as a victim.
The Chief Justice in his remarks said that the president has not submitted his reply nor rebutted the presence of the memo while the prime minister and army chief accepted the memo as a reality.
The CJ asked that if Husain Haqqani is a patriot then why he was dragged in the case.
