LAHORE: Spokesman of the Punjab Government Malik Muhammad Ahmed Khan accused PTI Chairman Imran Khan of being a tool of foreign forces. He said the statement of former president Asif Ali Zardari about PML-N’s upbringing in the hands of general Ziaul Haq is objectionable. He said we could also say late Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was also brought in the hands of the general Ayyub Khan, adding that Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto remained minister for years in the cabinet of Ayyub Khan on Saturday.
Addressing a press conference Malik Ahmed Khan said that PTI chief was making mockery of country’s courts. He added that Imran had no respect for law and courts.
The spokesman questioned as to whether locking down Islamabad was justified or right step by PTI. He accused the opposition of trying to obstruct government from adding 4000 MW power in the national grid in the garb of accountability.
Khan said that in the past, nefarious objectives were met in the past in the name of accountability.
He added that Chief Minister Punjab Shahbaz Sharif had sent legal notice to Imran Khan but he did not respond it.
Dubbing Imran and PTI as puppet, he said that these very puppets were attempting to weaken the country. He said that PTI had tried to attack on prime minister House by staging sit-in in 2014.
He flayed Imran for making what he said mockery of laws of the land. He added that an anti-terrorism court had declared Imran as proclaimed offender but he did not bother to appear before the court.
The spokesman said that PML nawaz had complete trust in Supreme Court, but they had reservation over JIT. Malik Ahmed Khan hoped that the apex court could decide Panama case on merit.
