In a statement released by the interior ministry, Malik claimed that he was not aware of the Mehrangate issue as the interior ministry has nothing to do with the intelligence agency. “The ministry does not even control their finances and operations.”
The minister further said that Sharif and Mushahidullah are trying to divert the attention of the public from former Mehran Bank chief Younis Habib’s allegations in the Mehrangate scandal.
Malik has ordered his lawyer to issue a notice to Sharif and Mushahidullah in this regard, said the statement.
Earlier in a press conference held at Sharif’s residence in Lahore, the chief minister informed the media of taking action against Habib over his claim of giving hefty amounts to them.
Correction: In an earlier version of this article, PML-Q Senator Mushahid Hussain was erroneously mentioned in place of PML-N Senator Mushahidullah. The correction has been made.

I am amazed at how this system works, it is the same Mr. Malik who went out of his way in helping the Mian's during the first BB era, when he was with FIA. And now this - what will be the settlement price? one wonders.....
A poor country dependent heavily on foreign aid/ loan is systematically robbed by politicians with impunity.Why an FIR is not registered for the crime ? Well we know nothing will come out of the half hearted effort.Soon there will be a counter charge by the accused,and everything will be swept under the carpet.

This case is not come under suo notice. This case is related with crime and taking registered FIR against state criminals.
@zia ur rehman: Legends of Muk Muka
This is all turning into a big circus. Everybody is suing everybody else, and the public remains in turmoil
It's not Mushahid Hussain, rather Mushahidullah. He is a PML-N Senator while the former is a PML-Q senator
These both parties are bashing each other for taking money. Both parties leadership is corrupt and Imran is finally off the hook of establishment party. We dont care if he ends corruption in 90 days but we care he ends it.
Climax of the story, Nwaz and Shahbaz will beg apology from the nation.

* Absolute Rubbish* A thief can never sue a thief.
Loving this showdown. The media-players taking money from the intelligence agencies should also be discussed.
Listen. someone as alleged used the money for political purpose. Conduct the inquiry and find out the truth and take action according to law. People are sick and tired of political footsies being played.Solve problems of the people
