Pakistan - UNDER A PARTICULAR AGENDA: NAB VICTIMISING PPP LEADERS

The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) is pursuing a political agenda to victimise Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leaders, alleged Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah on Monday.
“The accountability bureau is victimising the PPP,” Shah said in a statement. “It has started a media trial of Sharjeel Inam Memon and other party leaders.”
The CM added that Memon had tendered his resignation from the local government ministry due to personal reasons. “Neither did the PPP ask him to resign nor was there any pressure on the Sindh government to force him to resign,” said Shah, who is also president of the party’s Sindh chapter.
“He is a PPP MPA and central deputy secretary of information and is on leave but unfortunately his name has been put on the exit control list. This is nothing but political victimisation,” claimed Shah, requesting the federal government to intervene in the matter and refrain NAB from taking unilateral action against PPP lawmakers.
Referring to the case initiated by NAB against Memon, the CM said, “These are politically motivated cases”. He added that the inquiry against Memon is biased and his name should be removed from the ECL list without any delay.
