ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) spokesperson Fawad Chaudhary has said that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, after sabotaging the national institutions, was hatching conspiracies to divide the legal fraternity through workers cladded in black coats.

Responding to Nawaz’s speech here on Friday, Fawad, addressing him, said, “Mian Sahab! You are not supposed to ask questions, though, you are the one [who’s] answerable for plundering the nation’s wealth; [you] erected business empires in the names of your children, pushing the future of this nation in the abyss of poverty and destitution.”

He said that the legal fraternity has outrightly rejected Nawaz’s call, proving they are resolutely standing with the independent judiciary, like the whole nation. He said that the former premier is hell-bent on hollowing the foundations of the judiciary, but he must understand the fact that these absurd attempts will lead to more embarrassment for him eventually.

“Nawaz Sharif had full confidence over the five-member bench of the apex court by the morning of July 28 but his rants asking for withdrawal of the judgment signal a severe mental illness,” he said.

Criticising the ex-PM, the PTI spokesperson further stated that his latest speech manifests that Sharifs are actually panicking about NAB references. He went on to add that these “sitcoms” are nothing but vile attempts to pressurise the Supreme Court and NAB officials. He said that after failing to answer and defend his ill-gotten wealth in the Supreme Court, Nawaz is “shamelessly asking the nation the reasons for his ouster.”

He maintained that terming the lootings, frauds and plunder as “revolution”, Nawaz is humiliating this word. He, lashing out at PEMRA and state TV, stated that they once again have discredited their own virtues.

The state TV, being run on tax payers’ money, is promoting and giving full coverage to a person who was disqualified by the apex court of the country for plundering national exchequer, he said. PEMRA, he believed, violated LHC order and dishonored the court. Therefore, he requested/pleaded the court to take notice of this notorious practice of PEMRA.
