He said the legal procedure would be followed for the arrest of the PTI Senator if required at a later stage. He said that PTI member Hamid Zaman had been also taken into protective custody in this foreign funding case.

In response to PTI head Imran Khan’s newest tape leak, in which he was purportedly heard discussing horse dealing in the National Assembly, the minister stated that this “fitna” is now being exposed by God, and the public is now recognizing him.

While berating the former PM, Sanauallah stated that this guy was playing games with the nation by using a false narrative and confusing the youth of this country.

“This Haqiqi Azadi has no meaning, and he is taking people’s oaths,” he continued. According to the PML-N leader, this recording is from the time when Khan was facing a no-confidence vote.

NAB should end for the betterment of Pakistan, says Shahid Khaqan

January 22, 2021 by Arhama Altaf

Senior Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Shahid Khaqan Abbasi has on Friday said that Pakistan should abolish the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) for the betterment of Pakistan.

Addressing a press conference alongside PML-N leader Ahsan Iqbal, Shahid Khaqan said,”Many other people are going to be exposed in the Broadsheet scandal,” adding that at present, Pakistan has the “most corrupt government in power”.

“Those appointed to track down corruption turned out to be the most corrupt in the country themselves,” he said. “Every job is being sold in the Punjab government today. How will corrupt people stop corruption?”

Speaking about the former Supreme Court judge Azmat Saeed who has been appointed to head the Broadsheet Inquiry, Abbasi said that he “requests Azmat Saeed not to head the inquiry because he himself was part of NAB.”

عظمت سعید صاحب سے گزارش کرونگا آپ سپریم کورٹ کے جج رہے ہیں آپکا معاشرے میں ایک مقام ہے.آپکی ایک عزتپاکستان کے عوام کے دل میں ہونی چاہیے.آپ پر لازم ہے اس کمیشن کے سربراہ نہ بنیں.اس کمیشن کا سربراہ ایک ایسا غیر متنازعہ آدمی ہو جو حقائق عوام تک پہنچاسکے@SKhaqanAbbasi pic.twitter.com/Q7HSGhAmu4

“Don’t be a part of the deal which puts the country’s honour at stake,” he said.

Justice (R) Azmat Saeed was employed as the deputy prosecutor general of NAB in the year 2000 for a period of one year. He was appointed special prosecutor of NAB in 2001 to pursue cases before the accountability courts at Attock Fort and Rawalpindi.

Shahid Khaqan Abbasi further said that the Broadsheet scandal is not about probing corruption worth a few million rupees but it is the “story of destroying politics in the country.”

Broadsheet probe will put Opposition in a “tough spot”, predicts Sheikh Rasheed

January 22, 2021 by Arhama Altaf

Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed has on Friday said that the Broadsheet LLC scandal and the government’s probe over the latest revelations in the case will put the Opposition in a “tough spot”, as he dismissed their objections to the government’s choice of committee head.

Sheikh Rasheed, while chairing a press conference in Karachi asked the Opposition that if they are against the appointment of Saeed, then would they rather have Malik Qayyum in his place.

It should be noted that PML-N “rejected” a probe panel established by the government, which is to be headed by former Supreme Court Justice Azmat Saeed.

The interior minister asked the Opposition that if they are against the appointment of Saeed, then would they rather have Malik Qayyum in his place.

Qayyum was appointed as a Lahore High Court judge on Oct 24, 1988, but resigned after the Supreme Court in April 2001 described his conduct as “biased” while deciding an appeal of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto against her conviction in a corruption case.

According to reports, the PPP had “released the transcript of a phone conversation indicating (Saeed’s) collusion with the incumbent government” (PML-N) regarding a judgment in a case against Benazir.

PDM Protest: Imran Khan was “illegally imposed” on the country, Maryam

January 19, 2021 by Arhama Altaf

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz has on Tuesday said that Imran Khan has confessed to all the crimes and the only punishment is given in this regard.

Addressing the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) protest outside the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) in Islamabad, Maryam said that today if people are facing difficulties, then the people take ECP responsible for that.

You were selected by holding the ECP hostage and rigging people’s votes, she added.

The PML-N leader further lashed out at the Prime Minister saying that he was fully prepared to rob the people from the beginning.

“Today we have gathered in front of the ECP office to remind it of its constitutional responsibilities, to tell the chief election commissioner that your institution is a constitutional institution and an institution of the people. This is the institution that the Constitution has made responsible for respecting the people’s votes and this is the institution that had to get respect for the people’s votes,” she added.

Terming the PTI foreign funding case the “biggest fraud in Pakistan’s history”, she said although the cases against her father were expedited and decided within days, the ECP had “only held 70 hearings” of the PTI case since 2014.

“Today the PDM and public ask you if you did not steal, then why did you try to stop the case 30 times?” Maryam said, addressing Prime Minister Imran Khan.

She added that the premier had submitted six requests in the court saying the ECP could not decide this case.

On the other hand, addressing the crowd, Ahsan Iqbal said PM Imran Khan was “illegally imposed” on the country.

He slammed the government over the economic crisis and policies. “It is time the selected government is sent packing.”

Furthermore, he said that PDM would submit its memorandum tomorrow, not today.
