ISLAMABAD ( Web News )
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Senior Vice President and Party’s Chief Organizer Maryam Nawaz Sharif has criticised Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Umar Ata Bandial, asking him to step down from the post and join the opposition party —Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
“The chief justice was very happy today to meet the criminal who plundered Rs60 billion from the national exchequer and he [CJP] was even more happy to release this criminal,” the PML-N leader said in a statement issued on twitter, while referring to the CJP remarks during the hearing. She said that chief justice is the biggest responsible for attacks on the most important and sensitive installations of the country.
“..[the CJP] is acting as a shield of a fitna [rabble-rouser Imran Khan] and is pouring fuel on the fire in the country. You should leave the post of chief justice and join the Tehreek-e-Insaf like your mother-in-law,” she added.
Meanwhile in a brief statement on Twitter, Minister for Planning, Development and Special initiatives Ahsan Iqbal Chaudhry while referring to the crackdown on opposition leaders during the last PTI tenure said: “I wish this Supreme Court was there even during 2018-22!”
