PMLN Central Spokesperson Marriyum Aurangzeb has said that Prime Minister Imran Khan is petrified of PMLN leadership which is why he is doing all he can to keep them away from the people because their very presence makes him feel insecure.
Talking to the media outside NAB court, Marriyum said that Nawaz Sharif, Shehbaz Sharif and a number of PMLN Leaders were targets of the worst political victimization campaign in recent history of the country which is a travesty of justice, abuse of power and destruction of national institutions.
Despite worst political infiltration of state institutions, PTI was unable to implicate PMLN Quaid and President under any allegation of corruption or wrongdoing of public money, Marriyum stressed.
Nawaz Sharif, she said had served the country with absolute devotion and out of pure love for the people of Pakistan. He had successfully completed a number of mega projects but by the grace of God Almightly not a single dime of corruption could ever be proven against him because he treated power and public money as a sacred trust.
Marriyum said that Pakistan is currently being governed by thieves, liars and deceivers who have the most negative approach and agenda. This incompetent group knows nothing but to lie to the people of Pakistan and deceive them with distracting told of accusations against PMLN while they loot national treasure and jeopardize the future of the country.
“PTI has a simple formula. Deceive the people with allegation of NRO on Nawaz Sharif to distract from their nightmare governance; create the fiasco of Shehbaz Sharif’s illegal arrest while sneaking massive increase in electricity and gas tariffs; stage a travel ban on Hamza Shehbaz to distract public attention away from the Rupee’s value sliding to record lows; when the people demand the promised ten million jobs and half a million homes, point a finger at Saad Rafiq and arrest him without filing a reference; and the classic move of accusing PMLN of demanding NRO while granting the single biggest NRO to Aleema Baji”, said Marriyum.
However, despite all these attacks, PTI had failed to prove even a penny of corruption on Nawaz Sharif, she said, and added that by the grace of God Almighty Nawaz would emerge as winner from the remaining cases as well.
Marriyum said that Shehbaz Sharif was being subjected to the most vengeful political victimization because Imran Khan is scared of his public appeal due to the services he had done for the masses. The Imran Government had not been able to prove a single charge or bring forward a single incriminating piece of evidence against Shehbaz, yet they continue to abuse their power to target Shehbaz, she added.
The former Minister Information said that it was the legal and constitutional right of Saad Rafiq that production order for him be issued.
“Speaker Asad Qaisar had said on the floor of the august house that he would never let the parliament down. The Speaker had set a positive precedence by issuing Shehbaz Sharif’s Production Orders. I hope that he honors his words and parliamentary traditions by issuing Saad Rafique’s production orders at the earliest”, she demanded.
PMLN Spokesperson condemned needles victimization of Hanif Abbasi’s daughter and said that the actions of the Medical Superintendent was unwarranted and unacceptable. She said that Dr Rabia was being targeted only because she was the daughter of a PMLN leader Hanif Abbasi. What law permits the MS to record and spread a private phone-call, she questioned, and called for an inquiry into the matter.
