ISLAMABAD, November 9: The opposition is not happy with NAB’s Lahore director general appearing on several TV shows and discussing the Shehbaz Sharif case. They submitted a privilege motion in the National Assembly on Friday under Rule 95 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in National Assembly, 2007. Shahzad Saleem appeared on five TV programmes on November 7 and 8, during which he “conducted a media trial of opposition members, attempted to influence the so-called cases against the members of the National Assembly, provided details of the matters that are sub-judice, revealed details of confidential and secret NAB documents and maligned the reputation of the members of the parliament”. They say he breached the privilege of the members of the opposition.
The members have asked for the assembly to immediately intervene in the matter. – Agencies
