Sugar Scandal Accountability Under Chief Criminal Imran After Helping Prime Suspect Abscond is Mockery of Justice – Marriyum
PMLN Secretary lnformation Marriyum Aurangzeb says it is a mockery of accountability and justice that Imran Khan, despite being the prime criminal, has taken the sugar corruption inquiry under the NAB-Niazi jurisdiction after helping the Prime accused abscond to UK.
Responding to the press conference by Shibli Faraz and Shehzad Akbar, Marriyum said the rented government Spokespersons again forgot to tell the nation the date of arrest of Imran Khan and Usman Buzdar, who had been proven beyond doubt as the chief criminals of robbing people with the sugar scandal which continues to this day.
The former Information Minister said after benefiting and loading his ATMs to the hilt with sugar corruption and giving them a safe passage out of the country, Imran and his cronies are touting about justice and accountability.
Marriyum said Imran built his Zaman Park house with the money gotten from the sugar corruption. There is no way to deny that Imran is the person who approved this robbery of public money through sugar scandal and is the sole responsibile for this mega crime. This corrupt government cannot now chant about accountability after pulling off the biggest sugar heist on the nation. Imran and Buzdar must present themselves to the nation to be held accountable for their crimes, she demanded.
“Imran needs to answer the nation why did he order export sugar amid domestic shortage? Why were exporters given subsidy despite massive devaluation of the rupee? Why are people of Pakistan paying Rs 90 per kg for sugar that is originally Rs 52/ kg?”, she questioned.
Marriyum reiterated that PTI is claiming false moral high ground over making the report public as it was mandatory to do so under the legislation passed by PMLN government.
She said Shahid Khaqan Abbasi has already challenged that parallel inquiries on provision of subsidy should be held over him and Imran to expose who is the real culprit.
