Ch. Nisar, please ask your FIA to also implement the Supreme Court order against Nawaz Sharif in the Asghar Khan case. That order remains unactioned even after about 2 years now.
With no malice or prejudice towards the apex court of Pakistan, I would like to know what is the basis of this order when the administration of the country, its policies and orders are the prerogative through the parliament to the ruling administration via the electoral process. Also with regard to Pakistani Canadians, the government recognizes their status as legitimate citizens of Pakistan also. It is regretted that such statements are emanating from such an august body.
