Islamabad: Pakistan’s Interior Minister Rehman Malik on Wednesday said that protests led by Sharif brothers are an eye opener for public as to what level they can go for their personal enmity where they even do not mind using the state machinery for their protest rallies.
Talking to media the Interior minister said that People of Punjab are suffering due to the wrong and vague policies of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif and Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif.
“Law and order situation is not satisfactory, corruption and mismanagement can be seen in Punjab province,” he said.
“I advise both the Sharif brothers to avoid telling lies and bring change in their attitudes. They should realise that people support Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) which is trying to bring positive change in their lives,” he said.
Malik said he has evidence against Sharifs of their involvement in corruption and added he would gradually reveal their other frauds before the masses.
Replying to a question, the minister said that he would approach the courts regarding their (Sharifs) corruption but first he will fight against them in the “court of masses.”
He said the amount embezzled and wasted in Sasti Roti Scheme and corruption in free laptops distribution is so massive that with the same amount half of the Punjab would have been self-sufficient in electric supply, he added.
“If Sharifs bring only 50 per cent of their wealth from abroad laundered through various banks and stolen by Pakistani banks can make Pakistan self-sufficient in the energy supply,” he said and asked Nawaz and Shahbaz to bring back the stolen money and invest in the country instead of “talking.”
