LAHORE: PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry said Wednesday the deposed prime minister Nawaz Sharif was not embarrassed over any of his actions. Lashing out at the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo while addressing a press conference in Lahore, Chaudhry said Nawaz had not spoken a word against martial law administrator Zia-ul-Haq. "Why did Nawaz not utter a single word against Zia? Why did he let Pervez Musharraf go abroad?" Had Nawaz not done his 'job submissively', why were Mushahidullah Khan and Pervaiz Rasheed removedfrom their positions? he questioned. The PTI leader said Nawaz just wanted to portray himself as innocent to save his property.
Nawaz spoke about everything except for the money trail of his Avenfield properties. "The day you will respond to how you were able to purchase the Avenfield properties, you will not have to dig out controversies," Chaudhry said. He accused Nawaz of attempting to destroy the political climate of the country. "You are trying to disturb the political climate because, for you, the state holds no value," he said. "You only value yourself, nothing else." Pakistan is transitioning into a stable democracy and Nawaz will not be able to impede this process, Chaudhry said.
