Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) senior leader Asif Kirmani on Monday said the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) would have to go to Qatar to record statement of the prince.
While talking to media outside Judicial Academy, the PML-N leader asserted that JIT should record statement of the prince. He said that the family of the prime minister has submitted attested documents before the JIT.
He further added that JIT gave three options to Qatari prince and he asked the team to come to Qatar to record his statement. ‘He has accepted one option of JIT so now the team must go to Qatar’, he emphasized.
He also raised apprehension on hiring of a legal firm in London by JIT to investigate London flats property owned by Sharif family. “We had submitted the photocopies regarding that property in Supreme Court then why JIT hired the firm,” he queried.
Kirmani further stated that JIT has taken U-turn from its original goal. “Since start we have expressed our apprehensions on working style of JIT,” he said.
He noted that the report of the JIT will remain incomplete as long as it does not record the statement of the Qatari prince. He said Qatari prince has repeatedly invited JIT to record his statement but the probing team has not shown any intent towards that end. He said JIT has failed to carry out the investigation process as per its mandate.
Asif Kirmani said the PML-N leadership will not allow any conspiracy succeed against the progress and development of the country.
