Asif Ali Zardari has granted another pardon, his second in two days and this time to the right hand man and crony of Interior Minister Rehman Malik, who was pardoned on Monday night in a hush-hush cover up of his crimes.
Only the previous day a documented scandal of getting two illegal passports had surfaced against Sajjad Haider, one as a government servant and another as a private citizen, obtained under pressure of the Interior Ministry by making false declarations on government forms and documents.
Sajjad Haider, who was sentenced along with his patron and whose conviction was also upheld by the Lahore High Court (LHC) with him on May 17, has been pardoned by President Asif Ali Zardari under Article 45 of the Constitution.
