JIT probe procedure above the law: PM’s spokesman

LAHORE: Spokesman for the Prime Minister’s House Musadik Malik claimed on Wednesday that the process adopted by the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) to probe Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his family is above the law and the top court would be informed in this regard.

In a statement issued to express reservations of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) about the JIT, Musadik Malik accused the probe team headed by an official of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) of not following the due path. Statement of the PM House spokesperson has come after Hussain Nawaz, son of the premier, expressed reservations about two members of the JIT. 

The spokesman said that it should be in knowledge of the apex court whether the investigations being hailed as fair are fair in spirit or not.
