Pakistan’s Supreme court is set to hear petitions seeking the prosecution of the main opposition leader, Nawaz Sharif, for murder.
According to documents obtained by the BBC, the court will hear the accusations against Mr Sharif and then decide whether to pursue the charges.
The petitions call for Mr Sharif’s arrest and prosecution.
He has denied ordering the murder of an ex-army officer after an alleged political kickbacks deal turned sour.
Nawaz Sharif, twice elected as Pakistan’s prime minister, has recently been acquitted of similar criminal charges by the Supreme Court.
The court’s decision was made on 21 July but it is expected to begin its inquiries imminently.
‘Vindication’
“This is a false and totally politically motivated accusation,” Ehsan Iqbal, spokesman for Mr Sharif’s Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) party, told the BBC.
“This is only the latest in a series of recent accusations against Mr Sharif.
“The presidency and hidden hands are trying to pressurise him into backing down on his demand for prosecuting (former President) Musharraf.”
However, the main petitioner in the case, Shahid Orakzai, said that the court ruling was the vindication of a long struggle.

“It has taken 12 years for the truth to prevail,” said Mr Orakzai click below to read more

Kaun kiss ka Kutta hay ~ people of Pakistan knows better.
This story is another unsuccessful effort to divert media attention from Muhsarraf Trial.
Iftikhar Chaudary is great person who said Kalmiah Haq front of so called ” Komando” who is now running around and begging for life to survive. All these false stories are being made just to defame Nawaz Shreef so that Musharaff could survive or somehow Nawaz Shreef and his party change his stand about Musharaff..
This is nothing more than propganda.
Though no one is perfect in our political scenario , nevertheless, Nawaz Shreef if still performing better as compare to MQM and PPP who never whole heartedly accepted Iftikhar Chaudary and once he restored, Altaf Bahi immediately changed his opinion…

This story is another episode to demoralize Nawaz Shreef to refrain asking for Trial against Mushraff.. But like Brgd Imtiaz story .. this will also make zero contribution in changing the attention . People of Pakistan wants to stop miltary intervention now. . and we need to bring Mush in to justice .. these stories cannot divert the media attention from Musharraf Trial..

mcuk2001 what ever u are . How stupid u r , probably u are the testis of Musharaf and Zardari. Now i am in Australia seeing the circumstances of Pakistan and whole pakistan even the world knows who’s on right. Iftikhar chaudhary is not a kutta of Nawaz, but hopefully u are the testis of Musharaf and Zardari. u wrote “na maa sharif na baap sharif” agar ap kay maa baap sharif hotay to aj ap aisay na hotay. Its too much might. Every thing is in front of u even then u r thying u become blind. u shitt man

Aap logon ko dunya jiyale aur jiyalian kehte hein.

Ksi Jiyale ya Jiyali ka koi mazhab, Deen, Iman ya mulk nahein hota.

In jiyaloon aur jiyalion ne hamara adha mulk ham se alehda kar dya.

Yeh jiyale aur jiyalian hamare baqi rehte hove mulk ke bhi peeche pare hove hein.

Nawaz Shareef dushmani main yeh jiyale aur jiylian andhi ho chuki hein.

Inhein Zardari & Co ki loot maar, bad intzaami aur fail government nazar nahein aati.

Inhein nazar nahein aata keh mulk ke andar yeh cheeni, aate aur tail ka bohraan Zardari & Co ne jaan boojh kar paida kya.

Zardari & Co ne mulk ke andar Nawaz Shareef ke khilaf aik propagande ka mahaz khol dya hai.

Zadari, Musharraf aur Altaf Bhi teeno aik hein aur in ka maqsad Musharraf ke khilaf ghaddari ke moqadme ko rokna hai.

Yeh teeno mulk dushman aur bure log hein. In ki bunyaad dhons, dhaandli, ghaddari, sazashein aur deelein hein.

In sab par Khuda ki la’anat ho. Allah in shatannon se ham sabh ko aur hamare pyre wattan Pakistan ko bachae. Khuda Insaaf karne wala he. Khuda raham karne wala he.

Dekhne waloon ke lye Bhutto khandaan aik nishan-e-ibrat ban chuka hay lekan ibrat tau unn logoon ke lye hooti hay jin ke lye izzat, sharafat aur gherat kuch m’anee rakhti ho. Apni taraf se tau ye gaalian nkaal rahe hote lekan inn ke lye ye aik sharafat hay. Khuda inn ki iss sharafat ko inn ke manhoos chehroon per maare.

These people are not sincere with them self or Pakistan. They are looter of poor people of Pakistan. None of them should ever hold any position in Pakistan politic.

It will be test for C/J Iftikhar Choudhry, will he be fair and just with his savier Nawaz Sharif ?
I have not seen a single court decision against PML/N and its leaders so far, let us see in this murder allegation.
I think the Supreme Court and all the High Courts will refuse to try this case.
