LAHORE: Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Senator Sirajul Haq has deplored the government’s announcement rejecting the terms of reference (ToRs) proposed by the joint opposition parties, and said this proved that the rulers did not want accountability and were bent upon making the process of accountability and the inquiry commission into the Panama Leaks a disputed issue.
In a statement on Wednesday, he said the rulers must realise that such tricks won’t succeed any more. He said there was strong resentment among the masses on the issue of the ruling elite’s alleged corruption. He said the people wanted that corruption was uprooted once and for all and the plunderers of public money were executed in public.
Sirajul Haq said the JI wanted across-the-board accountability but the process must start from the prime minister because he was holding the highest public office in the country. He said nobody was above the Constitution and law. Sirajul Haq said those who were trying to give impression that the opposition was divided on the corruption issue were wrong. He said the opposition in its meeting in Islamabad had agreed on 15 ToRs and unanimously demanded indiscriminate accountability of all.
