ISLAMABAD: Minister of State for Information, Broadcasting, National History and Literary Heritage Marriyum Aurangzeb Tuesday said that the filing of a new reference against former prime minister Nawaz Sharif corroborated the fact that the previous reference was incomplete and he was politically victimised on the basis of an incomplete reference.
Talking to the media outside an accountability court, the minister asked as to which law of the country allowed legal proceedings on the basis of an incomplete reference. She said that neither any law permitted it nor the case was being prosecuted in conformity with the law. “The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), however, was not overawed by the permeating situation, she added.
The minister said that mammoth public rallies and the support for the former prime minister were a testimony to the fact that the decision of SC against Nawaz Sharif was not acceptable to the people of Pakistan. The people, she said, had unswerving faith and trust in his leadership.
She said that a London-based company, which doled out charms and amulets, was investigating against the thrice elected prime minister. She said that they were searching for incriminating evidence against the former prime minister whom they ousted on the basis of an iqama (work permit), and added that two persons sitting in a room were dishing out that evidence and people knew whose relatives owned that company.
The minister said that all the courts in Pakistan were giving verdicts about Nawaz Sharif at the moment. She reiterated that in her estimation it was imperative for the future of the country that the decisions were delivered strictly according to the laws of the land. She, however, expressed the hope that justice would be prevailed in the case of the former prime minister. Marriyum observed that all tittle-tattle about delay in the elections was dying down and the Senate and general elections would be held as per the schedule.
