Shehbaz Disappointed Over Nawaz Being Declared Absconder In Toshakhana Case
PMLN President and National Assembly Opposition Leader Shehbaz Sharif has expressed disappointment at declaring PMLN Quaid Nawaz Sharif an absconder in the Toshakhana Case.
In a statement Shehbaz said, it is sad to see such an order against someone who left his wife on the deathbed to uphold the rule of law and the principle of accountability no matter how controversial and questionable. The people of Pakistan have been hurt by this decision against the man who declared Pakistan as a nuclear power in the face of unimaginable global presence against it.
The PMLN President said even while he was the Prime Minister, Nawaz always faced the law, courts and was never reluctant to present himself for accountability. Nawaz wrote a letter to the Supreme Court and presented himself for accountability, he said.
Shehbaz said the PMLN leadership with its conduct has always upheld the supremacy and indiscriminate application of law. He assured that Nawaz will return to face the courts the day his doctors allow him to after his treatment.
He said such conduct towards someone who rid the country from terrorism and established the extensive network of road communication network for the country, is a dark chapter in the history of the country.
