Shehbaz unsuccessfully trying to politicize his possible arrest: Fayyaz Chohan

He said Shehbaz’s claims of not committing corruption tantamount to deceiving people.

LAHORE (Dunya News) – Punjab Information Minister Fayyaz-ul-Hassan Chohan on Wednesday said that leader of opposition in the National Assembly and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) president Shehbaz Sharif is foreseeing his arrest in cases pertaining to money laundering, fake TTs and corruption cases and is trying to unsuccessfully to politicize his possible arrest.

Reacting to the press conference of the PML-N president, he said that today’s presser before his possible arrest is a last ditch effort.

The provincial minister said that the opposition leader was trying unsuccessfully to politicize his possible arrest.

“Your arrest is not a personal wish or political revenge of Prime Minister Imran Khan, but it has become necessary for the courts and accountability institutions due to your perpetual, radiant and unprecedented corruption,” he said.

Chohan went on to say that the younger Sharif’s claims of not committing corruption of even a single penny tantamount to deceiving people, adding that he embezzled trillions of dollars, euros, dinars, dirhams and rupees.

The provincial minister said that the PML-N president was trying hard to douse the fire initiated by his elder brother former PM and party supremo Nawaz Sharif and his niece Maryam Nawaz, adding that the elder Sharif’s speech in the opposition’s All Parties Conference (APC) wasted his two years of hard work.

“Shehbaz Shahbaz Sharif had made a fuss over the country s economy when coronavirus pandemic broke out,” he said but by the grace of Almighty Allah and PM Imran’s policies the government passed this test.
