ISLAMABAD: Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif has lamented he couldn’t undo “Musharraf’s NAB law”.
Talking to media outside the accountability court here Tuesday, he said whatever was happening to him regardless, he would not compromise on the basic human rights and also on the country's interest.
Nawaz said, “You should focus on your own work. It is not your duty to summon the prime minister, chief ministers, politicians and bureaucracy and interfere in administrative affairs. You have to see the subordinate judiciary and see if the poor people are getting justice or not. How the oppressed people become rolling stone in the lower courts. People don’t have money to pay lawyer’s fee and they sell their properties for getting justice and even then they don’t.”
Earlier, Nawaz, talking to reporters in the courtroom, said the prosecution had to prove whether the London flats were purchased from public money. “They should prove any corruption, if committed. We have nothing to do with the corruption,” he added.
To a question about the NAB launching an inquiry against him over the appointment of a former chairman of Higher Education Commission (HEC), Nawaz replied that the NAB should also hold an inquiry as to how the incumbent the chief justice of Pakistan was appointed by him as law secretary and how he became a judge later. He said censorship begins when logic ends.
