The PPP will not allow judicial murder of another of its leader and the party will knock the people’s court in case of any injustice, Sindh Information Minister Shazia Marri said on Thursday while reacting to NRO case proceedings underway at the Supreme Court.
“When the SC larger bench was constituted, it took up the NRO case as the first case. Only PPP leadership’s trial is being held. Is it because of PPP leadership’s affiliation to Sindh?,” remarked the minister while speaking at a hurriedly called press conference at the Sindh Chief Minister’s House.
Marri said the SC larger bench did not take up the case of 22-year-old Asghar Khan and also did not consider taking up Rs 100 billion corruption case against Nawaz Sharif.
“We will not allow trial of the graves of our martyrs,” she said, adding that attempts were being made to conduct trial of Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto. The PPP workers are in shock over the situation, she said.
She said they were also concerned over the behaviour (of the court) with the federal government’s lawyer Babar Awan. “We are not afraid of the situation. We will face the situation,” she said, adding that many people had got benefit of the NRO.
The provincial law minister said they respected an independent judiciary, but questioned why was the Asghar Khan case not being heard. “Is the PPP leadership being punished only because of its affiliation with Sindh,” he added.
