The former president further said that despite emergence of a video, in which Punjab Minister Rana Mashhood is seen receiving money on behalf of Mian brothers, no arrests have been made as yet.
According to details, Prime minister has stopped PML-N leaders from reacting to Asif Zardari statement to avoid prolonging the misunderstanding between political parties. He warned that the politics of revenge be immediately stopped otherwise it will produce disastrous consequences. While referring the recent inquires, and arrests of party leaders by the Federal agencies he said that institutions should operate within their defined limits.
To a query, he said when PPP talk about war with the opponents, it doesn’t mean it would use guns but rather the party would take a course of law.
“If they want to conduct fair accountability, they should first take action against a federal minister who confessed before a magistrate his involvement in money laundering for the Sharif-brothers”. He said, the steps being taken by the government clearly indicate that they are dividing the nation in an attempt to save their natural allies Taliban and the terrorists and weaken the war against terror.
Nasir said that the menace of countrywide corruption was not the creation of PPP, but it had been prevailing for the last two decades.
In reply to a question, he said that the PPP co-chairman was a seasoned politician and the government should listen to him patiently.
“Mian Nawaz Sharif is reapting the politics of 1990’s”.
He said that today Nawaz Sharif is the Prime Minister of the country and Mian Shahbaz Sharif is the Chief Minister of Punjab only because of the Peoples Party.
“We are not among those who asked for pardon and escaped to Jeddah”, he pointed out. Only then we will know how clean the followers of the N-league are. “We salute our jawans(brave soldiers) who have given ultimate sacrifice in this war”, he added.
“Are not those who killed 14 people, including women in the Model Town tragedy, terrorists?” He had said that he knew how many cases were in the courts and how many generals are accomplices.
“The prime minister has also asked for a report on Asif Zardari’s statement”, stated Rashid.
The party’s senior vice president Sherry Rehman said the PPP has always been on the front-line in the war against terror. The ongoing Zarb-e-Azb operation would not have been started without the support of PPP, he said.
PPP leader said he had served five years in jail and that was why he worked against political victimisation during his tenure.
It is pertinent to mention here that Muttahida Qaumi Movement has also strongly protested against what it calls extrajudicial killings and forced disappearances and arrests of its workers under the garb of the Karachi operation.
Prime Minister has further advised all the PML-N leaders and ministers to maintain the policy of reconciliation with all the parties. But the government would have to address the concerns of Zardari, whose party controls the provincial government of Sindh, of which Karachi is the capital.
