ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan said on Tuesday that former Premier Nawaz Sharif should not be promoted as he is not a suspect but a criminal who was sentenced to jail by the Supreme Court of Pakistan.
Addressing to a conference, she said it is unfortunate to see that a convict is going back to jail with such pump and show by his party. She said in civilized societies convicted persons were not glorified, adding that glorifying the convicted person tantamount to committing the same crime.
Information Secretary said that unusual mollycoddle convict is violating all rules and laws of the jail manual as convicts are entitled to the code of conduct of jail and they should not be advertised.
She said that no society every sends an offender to jail with such grandeur. “Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) is promoting him like he has won a World Cup in corruption.” She added.
Firdous expressed that he should be ashamed instead of going back to jail in such a grand manner. “If he feels like taking the corruption World Cup trophy back with him, we do not mind”, she said.
