Jamaat-e-Islami Emir and Senator Sirajul Haq has claimed that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)-led government’s ill-planned economic policies have “deceived and disappointed the country’s youth”.
Speaking to the media and party workers at Mansoorah, Lahore on Friday, he said the Karachi incident had created a political and institutional crisis, exposing, once again, the state of law and order and other affairs in the country.
However, he added, the unfortunate incident was not new in its kind as the successive governments and security agencies adopted the same practices in the past to silence and pressurise their political opponents. “
The common person, on the other side, faced the same situation on a daily basis,” the senator further claimed. “There was much noise and media hype about the Karachi incident because of the involvement of equally powerful elements in it.”
“The culture of forced kidnapping and disappearance of people have become a common practice in the country for years,” he elaborated. “There are two systems running in the country, one for the powerful elements and the other for the weak.
