Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Patron-In-Chief of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), has condemned the victimisation of PPP leaders – former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani, Raja Pervaiz Ashraf and federal minister Makhdoom Amin Fahim – by the federal government and asked the PML-N to think twice before revisiting the era of political victimisation.
In a press statement issued here on Sunday, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said the PPP, its leaders and workers had braved victimisations at the hand of the worst dictators in the past and concocted cases, jails and courts are nothing new for them.
“Characters who initiated false cases and references against the PPP leaders in the past had apologized later on when they became commoners,” he pointed out and demanded Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to come out openly if he has shunned the policy of reconciliation initiated by Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and pursued by the Peoples government.
