Prime Minister Imran Khan on Tuesday slammed the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) over its decision to file a petition against lifelong disqualification saying that the body has gone to court for a “thief” who ran to London by “lying”.
“They [SCBA] are asking the court to give him [Nawaz Sharif] one more chance. SCBA’s next petition should be to open [the doors] of all the jails,” he sarcastically said while addressing the launch ceremony of the Sehat Insaf Card in the Bahawalpur division.
Attacking former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, the premier said that both the sons of the PML-N supremo are “sitting in London on properties worth billions.”
“London is the most expensive city in Europe and their homes are located in London’s most expensive area. He has sent his kids abroad. When you ask the three-time prime minister how did his kids accumulate billions, he says to ask the kids and when you ask them, they say that they are not Pakistani citizens,” said PM Imran.
Turning his guns towards Opposition leader Shahbaz Sharif, PM Imran said that the “whole world would be in shock if they see that a person earning Rs10,000 in Shahbaz Sharif’s son’s sugar mill has Rs4 billion in his name.”
“When you go into the details you will find out why our country could not reach the place it should have been. If you let a dacoit sit in a factory, then it will go bankrupt,” said the premier.
The premier claimed that in every poor country, a “dacoit” is made in charge who then steals the country’s wealth and takes it abroad.
“Till a nation does not unite to fight [against wrongdoing], the rule of law will not prevail. Our struggle is against bandits,” said PM Imran.
Speaking about the SBCA, PM Imran claimed that the lawyers’ body will go to court and request it to give another chance to a person who left the country by lying.
“If you [SBCA] do not see any fault in him then why have you put the poor in jail? You should free them first. Supreme Court bar should file the next petition to open all jails in Pakistan.
