The PM Yousuf Gilani is neglecting by saying that Zardari, who also co-chairman of the ruling party PPP of which the prime minister is a member, has immunity from proceeding while bearing the office of President.

The good aspect of this confilict is that the case will creat a goodwill of Pakistan through out the world that there is rule of Law in the country but the bad aspect is that the country will fall under political crisis if PM will go to jail.
