Expose all names in Panama Leaks: Siraj

LAHORE

Jamaat-e-Islami Amir Senator Sirajul Haq has stressed that all those named in the Panama Leaks must be exposed and brought to accountability. 

Speaking at an Iftar party at Mansoora on Sunday, he said that hundreds of people besides the ruling family had been named in the Panama Leaks.

These people had transferred billions of the country abroad and they all must be tried and the plundered wealth be brought back to the country. 

He said that after the trial of the rulers, the accountability of the others would be easy but it was essential to begin the process and those who had fled the country must also be brought back.

Sirajul Haq said the rulers desired the accountability institutions to be toothless but this would not do now.

The JI chief slated the price-hike during the month of Ramazan which had broken all records.

He said it was difficult for the people to manage Sehr and Iftar and they were praying for deliverance from the rulers.

At the same time, he said, power outages had crossed all limits and made the life of the people difficult.

He said the people deserved some relief during the holy month but the performance of the rulers was highly disappointing.
