KARACHI (Dunya News) – Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said on Sunday that suspended Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Rao Anwar should have a fair trial in Naqeebullah Mehsud probe.

Bilawal addressed a press conference in Karachi and said that the party would soon launch membership drive ahead of General Elections 2018. He said that the party wants to end politics of hatred and induct youth in PPP.

Bilawal said that he condemns ‘police encounters’ however, the police official has the right to a fair trial.

He said that PPP alone cannot bring positive changes and the people of Karachi need to vote for the party to bring reforms.

PPP chief said that PPP wishes to make Pakistan a peaceful and developed country. He asserted that PPP uplifted some six lac families who were living below the poverty line. Bilawal demanded that Senate elections should be held on due time.

While talking about Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan, PPP chairman said that he invariably divided the opposition at every level and that he weakens a joint opposition.

While criticising federally ruling Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), Bilawal said that former president and co-chairman of PPP Asif Ali Zardari is a ‘hunter of the lions’.

Bilawal further claimed that former premier Nawaz Sharif would never nominate Punjab chief minister (CM) Shehbaz Sharif as candidate for premiership.
