LAHORE: Member of National Assembly and son of Chief Minister of Punjab, Hamza Shehbaz has said on Friday that certain politicians purchased copters after having their loans written off.
The lawmaker addressed a workers’ convention of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) at Alhamra Cultural Complex in the metropolis.
Referring to Ittefaq Foundary that was set up by his grandfather, Mian Sharif, he said that leaders of PML-N never asked for accountability when their assets were nationalized. He said that leaders of PML-N got their pockets riffled through for eight years during former president and army chief, Musharraf’s tenure but nothing objectionable was found.
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was handcuffed in an aircraft. His earnings were taken over by Musharraf which he got back through legal claim filed in Supreme Court of Pakistan, Hamza asserted.
He claimed that Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan sided with the former dictator to get elected as the Prime Minister.
The convention was addressed by Federal Minister for Railways, Khawaja Saad Rafique and others besides Hamza Shehbaz.
