Today's incident shows failure of Punjab government: Khawaja Asif
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) senior leader Khawaja Asif has said that Maryam Nawaz has always appeared in the courts but today s incident is a proof of the incompetence of the Punjab government.
Addressing the National Assembly, Khawaja Asif strongly condemned the incident that took place on the occasion of Maryam Nawaz s appearance in NAB office today and said that if actions against the League workers were not stopped then the rulers would be responsible.
He said that the united opposition and PML-N demand immediate release of the arrested workers. We are not against accountability, I myself appear before the NAB for accountability but the Punjab government will be responsible for what has been started.
Khawaja Asif said that whenever political leaders appear before courts, workers gather in their support, similarly when Maryam Nawaz was summoned by NAB, thousands of workers gathered, but this time the police used brutal force against the workers.
He said the front screen of Maryam Nawaz s car was broken. There is not as much security in the Supreme Court as there is outside the NAB office.
