RECORDER REPORT

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Sunday responded to the questions posed by the ousted Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif during his rally from Islamabad via Grand Trunk (GT) road pertaining to his disqualification by Supreme Court in Panama Papers case.

Through a pamphlet titled “Mr disqualified Prime Minister, for your information, these are the reasons for which you have been disqualified in a 5-0 SC ruling”, released by the central media office of PTI, the party responded with 10 answers to Nawaz Sharif’s main question during his rally, “Why I was ousted”?.

“Mian sahib! you were ousted by the apex court because;” (i) You “plundered” the national exchequer through corruption and misuse of your authority, (ii) You set up offshore companies and purchased properties on your children names to save the “stolen” money, (iii) You tried to hide your “black” money by keeping Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), Federal Bureau of Revenue (FBR), Security and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP, and other institutions in complete darkness and filed “wrong” information in your assets and liabilities’ details, (iv) You remained involved in money laundering in connivance with your “Samdhi” [daughter’s father-in-law] Ishaq Dar and other corrupt officers, (v) You kept the tax colleting institutions in complete darkness during your past 30 years, (vi) You “lied” with the Parliament and the nation following Panamagate and instead of telling the truth before the apex court, you again tried to keep the court in the darkness, (vii) You and your children in all possible ways hindered in court proceedings and the probe by the joint investigation team (JIT) and tried to create obstacles in delivering the justice by filing “fake” documents before the top judiciary, (viii) You, in no way, qualified to be “Sadiq and Ameen” under Article 62 and 63 of the Constitution, (ix) The people and the apex court was asking you for an answer [to Panama Papers leaks] for the last 15 months but you had nothing but “lies”, and (x) Not five people but five judges of the Supreme Court ruled against you that you are no more “Sadiq and Ameen”.

The pamphlets carrying the answers to Nawaz Sharif’s questions, were also dropped from a helicopter in different parts of Rawalpindi where PTI and Amay Muslim League had convened a mammoth rally in historic Liaqat Bagh in connection with Pakistan Independence Day’s celebrations.
