LAHORE (Dunya News) – Panama Leaks fiasco continues in the country with government refusing to back down from the issue or take pressure from the Opposition. Pakistan Peoples Party’s (PPP) senior leader Aitzaz Ahsan Thursday stated that Prime Minister (PM) Nawaz Sharif’s lawyers had advised him against answering to the Opposition’s question, warning that he will be trapped if he answered them.

According to the details, Ahsan made the revelation during Dunya New program “Dunya Kamran Khan Kay Sath”. Meanwhile responding to Ahsan’s statement, Federal Minister for Privatization Muhammad Zubair stated that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan and the Opposition cannot ask questions from the PM like a ‘school master’.

Zubair stated that PM will satisfy both the Parliament and the nation, adding that it does not matter at what day he comes. The Federal Minister further stated that the ownership claims of the flats in London cannot be proved.

Ahsan responded to the Federal Minister saying that everything can be proven if the government approves the Terms of References (TORs) for the commission that will probe the Panama Leaks case.
