Haleem Adil Sheikh, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf parliamentary leader in the Sindh Assembly, has announced that his party will approach the Supreme Court against what he said illegal advisers appointed by the Sindh chief minister.
Addressing a news conference at the Insaf House on Sunday, he said Sindh Information Minister Saeed Ghani and its spokesperson Barrister Murtaza Wahab, who is an adviser to the CM, were spreading misinformation rather than disseminating true information to the people.
For some days, the press conferences of Ghani and Wahab are based on lies, Sheikh said, alleging that Wahab only spoke the written notes that were handed to him. He also accused the adviser of being corrupt.
The PTI leader said people like Wahab were illegally occupying important offices and then they dreamt of becoming leaders of Sindh. He also censured the Sindh government for weakening the police force. Why police officers in Sindh are afraid, he asked and alleged that the Sindh government was demotivating honest police officers through transfers.
The Sindh government was so afraid that it barred police officers from issuing media statements, Sheikh said. Commenting on the recent transfer of SSP Dr Rizwan, he added that Ghani had falsely maintained that Punjab had demanded the SSP’s services, and actually it was the Sindh government that had returned the SSP back to the federal government.
The PTI leader said the crime of Dr Rizwan was that he was a member of the joint investigation team that was formed to investigate allegations on Rao Anwar. Dr Rizwan had also investigated the case of Naqeebullah Mehsud, he added.
Sheikh said the rules of Sindh had been afraid of brave police officers like AD Khowaja and they needed corrupt cops on higher positions in the province. He also lambasted the provincial government for the deaths of children in Tharparkar, rise in dog-bite cases and surge in various diseases.
