ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan bashed Nawaz Sharif once again in his media talk outside Supreme Court Tuesday and said that the Prime Minister lied on the floor of the parliament.
Imran Khan briefed the media about Tuesday’s proceedings of court and said that Nawaz Sharif’s lawyers are now asking for PM’s speech to be removed from the record as he has the parliamentary privilege.
He said that this stance only proves one thing that Nawaz Sharif lied on the floor of the house. He said that it is a democratic right of opposition parties to raise questions and ask for clarifications from the government, and Nawaz Sharif made his speech in National Assembly in response to opposition’s questions.
He said PM’s speech in National Assembly was a calculated one and pre-written, and now he is asking for immunity. Imran Khan demanded Nawaz Sharif once again to answer the four questions and said only dictators like Hosni Mubarak and Saddam Hussein doesn’t answer to their people.
He said that we cannot let the prime minister of our country to set values of lies and falsehood before next generations and compared the situation to David Cameron who gave documentary clarification in front the British parliament. Imran Khan demanded to implement Article 62, 63 and let the parliamentarians go even if that includes Imran Khan himself. The PTI chief wondered, “Why is Nawaz Sharif so much frightened to bring his NA speech on record, if he did not tell lies.
Meanwhile, denying apologizing to Election Commission, chief of PTI said that backing out from what they have said is a marked trait of the rulers. Talking to media persons while expressing solidarity with the office of Supreme Court Bar Association over housing colony for lawyers, Imran demanded that the promises made to the Bar should be fulfilled.
