ISLAMABAD: The government has expressed reservations over the initial inquiry report of the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) that was set up in the light of the Supreme Court’s verdict in Panama Papers case.
Talal Chaudhry, a senior ruling party leader, says the apex court has been informed about the reservations.
He said Sharif family had conveyed its reservations about JIT to the Supreme Court but would not make its viewpoint public.
He said Nawaz Sharif did not seek legal rights for his daughter and sons who were living abroad like millions of Pakistanis.
The lawmaker said Sharif family will ask for protection of all of its legal rights which were enjoyed by every Pakistani.
"There should not be one law for Sharif family and another law for other Pakistanis," he added.
Reacting to Imran Khan’s criticism of the prime minister over his Saudi tour, the lawmaker said Imran Khan’s information is always insufficient. “Imran Khan doesn’t know about national issues, let alone international affairs,” said he.
He accused Khan of saving the people trying to damage Pakistan Army’s credibility.
He said some elements tried to distort the image of Pakistan and its forces and the ongoing FIA drive was an effort to teach them about freedom of speech.
