Nothing found about Nawaz in 6 months
FAISALABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Maryam Nawaz Thursday said no allegation of corruption would be proved against former prime minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif during the additional two months of trial being conducted by the accountability court.
The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) and other institutions had failed to prove any corruption charges against Nawaz Sharif during the last two years, including six months after his disqualification as prime minister, she said addressing a PML-N social media workers convention here at the historic Iqbal Park. Maryam said she appeared before a NAB court on Thursday, which was her third appearance along with Nawaz Sharif during the week. She said the Supreme Court had given six months to NAB to prove allegations against Nawaz Sharif, and that deadline expired on March 7. The Bureau had failed to prove any charges so far and the additional two-month trial would also prove to be a futile exercise, she added. She said when the defence lawyers asked from Wajid Zia?s cousin how much money was paid to him for carrying out investigation against Nawaz Sharif, he refused to divulge the amount saying that it was his personal matter. How the issue could be termed a personal one as he was paid from the national kitty, she questioned. She claimed that Wajid Zia?s cousin was awarded the contract for 50,000 pounds, but he failed to prove anything against Nawaz Sharif. Maryam said Nawaz Sharif was being tried for the fifth time, but corruption of even a single penny was not proved against him. He was probably the only person in the world who had been convicted without any proof of corruption, she added. She said the Balochistan government was toppled so that the PML-N could not gain majority in the Senate. But despite all conspiracies, the party had emerged as the majority party in the Upper House of the Parliament, she added. She paid tribute to members of national and provincial assemblies, and senators belonging to the PML-N for standing with Nawaz Sharif through thick and thin. She said the PML-N candidate had fought the by-election in Sargodha with the symbol of ?pick-up?, but he won the seat with a big margin of 20,000 votes. Despite the symbol of ?loin? not allotted to the PML-N candidate, he was voted by the people as they knew that he was supported by Nawaz Sharif, she added.The people would similarly vote for the PML-N in the general elections 2018 to revive the sanctity of vote, she said. أكثر...
