Asghar Khan case: Nawaz no longer saadiq or amin, says Sharjeel Memon
Information minister requests Election Commission of Pakistan to disqualify Sharif from contesting future elections.
KARACHI:
Sindh Information Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon said on Wednesday that the “real face” of Nawaz Sharif and the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) was exposed after the Supreme Court passed its judgment in the Asghar Khan case.
The verdict proves that Nawaz Sharif had disgraced the mandate of 180 million people and pocketed billions of rupees, and the PML-N will definitely face defeat in the upcoming elections, Memon said in a statement.
“No one can save Nawaz Sharif from going behind bars this time.” The information minister also requested the Election Commission of Pakistan to disqualify Sharif from contesting future elections. While borrowing the terminology used by the Supreme Court in a case concerning federal interior minister Rehman Malik, Memon said that the Sharif brothers were no more saadiq (true) and ameen (trustworthy).
The apex court had declared that the interior minister could not be considered saadiq and ameen as he had allegedly submitted fake documentation about his nationality status when the court was holding hearings on the dual nationality case.
