KARACHI: Dr Fauzia Siddiqui questioned the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz as to why it was not using its heavy mandate to raise the Dr Aafia Siddiqui case, saying that the nation expects the Nawaz Sharif government not to repeat the apathy shown by the previous regime.

She said that it is a test case for the new government and Sharif must show his commitment towards this issue and bring her sister back within the first 100 days or else the nation would hold them accountable as they did the last government.
