The cases against PPP leaders will also come under discussion, sources said. As of today, a banking court in Karachi extended the interim bail granted to former president and PPP Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari and his sister Faryal Talpur in a money laundering case.

Fearing the PPP leaders’ arrest, the party has plans to protest across the country. A large number of party leaders and workers also gathered outside the court today.
