Derogatory terminology used against Nawaz, verdict example of bias, malice, says ruling party

LAHORE: (Dunya News) – Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) has on Wednesday rejected the detailed verdict of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s review petition in Panama case by Supreme Court, terming it a clear example of ‘bias and malice’, reported Dunya News.

In its statement issued today, PML-N stated that the former PM and his family acted upon the the court orders without any confusion yet the party would not accept the language used by political opponents in public meetings in the verdict of the court.

The party maintained that Nawaz Sharif’s struggle for a free judiciary in the country was part of the history and his party would continue to work for a free judiciary that upholds and protects the constitution of the country. The declaration added that malignant language for political personalities or any common Pakistani used by the apex court could not be concealed under the cloak of ‘freedom of judiciary’.

The declaration further said that the couplet quoted in the verdict would suffice with a slight change in the wording.

Don’t beat about the bush, just tell me how the caravan got looted
I’m not worried about the thieves, the question is about your ‘justice’
