Investigation will not be independent until PM resigns, says Imran Khan
Imran Khan was talking to media after Panama case hearing in Supreme Court.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan has once again demanded the resignation of Prime Minister (PM) Nawaz Sharif.
“By law the right thing to do would be for him to resign otherwise how will the investigations be free and open?” he questioned.
Khan said that the investigating departments are subordinate to the Prime Minister and if a commission is formed it will not be able to work independently.
“We will examine the TORs of the commission; however all institutions (NAB,FIA etc) that are supposed to investigate are under Nawaz Sharif,” he said.
“We will sit and deliberate, the Supreme Court has not made a final decision on the commission as yet. And day after tomorrow we will give them our point of view,” he said.
PTI chief said that PM Nawaz stated in parliament that all the record of property is present but in the court their lawyer asserted that the statement was a political move and no such record exists.
Shah Mehmood Qureshi said that PM Nawaz’s lawyers failed to answer even a single question that the courts have regarding the Panama papers.
Sharif family has acknowledged the loss of Gulf steel and will certainly accept other things too, says PTI.
