PTI leaders react strongly to PM Shehbaz, Hamza’s acquittal
LAHORE (Dunya News) - Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders on Wednesday reacted to the acquittal of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and former Punjab chief minister Hamza Shehbaz in the money laundering case.
-Fawad Chaudhry-
Former federal minister and PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry lambasted Shehbaz Sharif and Hamza, saying that their acquittal [of Shehbaz Sharif and Hamza Shehbaz] after money laundering of Rs24 billion is the biggest slap on the judicial system. Taking a dig at the Prime Minister [Shehbaz Sharif] and the former Punjab chief minister [Hamza Shehbaz], Fawad said that on one hand they are asking for money for the flood-affected people and on the other hand a family has looted billions of rupees.

The former governor of Sindh, Imran Ismail said, "There can only be concern over the speedy acquittal of the Sharif family in various cases. Common prisoners should also have this facility. Both the families have dragged the country on the back foot.”
