ISLAMABAD, April 12: Senior leader of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Shahid Khaqan Abbassi has said that the present government will make efforts to improve economic conditions of the country.
Talking to the media persons on Tuesday, Abbasi said, “We do not believe in vengeance but facts regarding the corruption carried out over the last four years will be presented before the people.” Abbasi urged the new government to dissolve the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) whose chairman Javed Iqbal was “fully under the control” of former premier Imran Khan. Abbasi advised the government to end NAB and hold its officials accountable who allegedly tortured and looted people for years during the PTI regime. The NAB chairman used to take instructions from the previous government, he said, alleging a member of Imran’s cabinet used to direct the bureau chief to lodge fake cases against the opposition.
“The weak NAB chairman will now go after Imran’s friends,” he claimed, adding that the accountability watchdog had failed to file a single reference over the alleged corruption in Imran’s government. The facts about NAB will be brought to light soon, he added. Abbasi said the government will move courts to seek the installation of cameras inside the accountability courts to expose the reality of NAB’s accountability drive. – NNI
