KARACHI: Information Minister Sharjeel Memon lashed out against the judiciary on Saturday and alleged that it was biased against the ruling Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP).

Speaking to the media in Karachi, Memon said, “Since three years, a PPP leader is lying in a jail and they are neither giving him bail nor sentencing him. If you [judiciary] think he is guilty, then punish him.”

The minister also mentioned the Arsalan-Riaz saga which involves the chief justice’s son and said, “The biggest thief Arsalan Chaudhry is roaming out free and no one can arrest him. You have issued a stay order on his case. Is that not biased?”

Memon also criticised Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) and said it has started doing dramas. “Look at the recent example of how Sardar Zulfiqar Khosa and his son left the party and came back.”

Waving a paper in his hand which Memon claimed was Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah’s press release, Memon questioned that how can a party which leveled huge allegations against the Khosas bring them back.

“If Rana Sanaullah’s allegations are incorrect, then expel him from the party, and if they are right, then how are they bringing the Khosas back?” Memon added.

SAD | 11 years ago | Reply While no supporter of PPP , the CJ & his cronies are far from just. The CJ is tipped in favour of a particular party, the same one that looted billions in the name of "Qarz utaro, mulk sawaro"

@Maher: Add this to my response to Nauman's comments and there you have a comprehensive picture of PPP's horrible 5 years in government.
