ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) on Saturday urged the chief justice to take notice of the case against former Punjab law minister Rana Sanaulla, who is facing charges of drugs possession.
PML-N spokesperson Marriyum Aurangzeb said, Sanuallah’s arrest was a slap on the face of the justice system and showed how the government wanted to exact revenge from its political opponents.
“Rana Sanaullah was arrested on drug-related charges, but the inquiry has shifted to scrutinising his assets. The government is prosecuting him [Sanaullah] without a judge and a lawyer,” Aurangzeb said.
The PML-N spokesperson added, the prosecutor has also admitted that he has no video evidence against Sanaullah. “Even after two months and 13 days, no video has been produced but an inquiry into his assets which he inherited from his father has been initiated.”
Sanaullah was arrested by the Anti-Narcotics Force from near the Sukheke area in Punjab on July 1.
