LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Punjab President Rana Sanaullah has slammed the sitting government for resorting to 'politics of vendetta', saying that courts are being stopped from dispensing justice to the opposition leaders.
The PML-N leader said that families of judges who hear cases against opposition parties are monitored. "[As you know] judges are also changed through WhatsApp [messages]," he said, while talking to media here on Saturday. Rana said: "Courts are being stopped from dispensing justice in this whole process of opposition leaders' victimization." Terming the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) as 'Opposition Control Agency,' the PML-N leader said the government is using NAB against opposition and claimed that everyone, "from the chairman NAB to his assistant are being held hostage and blackmailed; even the questions they ask are handed to them from somewhere else. By creating this sort of environment of fear in the country, we are pushing it towards anarchy and chaos," he added.
Rana criticised Prime Minister Imran Khan over his earlier remarks on dual nationals when he said that they should not be allowed to become members of the parliament. He accused the PM of following double standards when it came to his own advisers and assistants who were dual nationals, adding that the entire nation was witnessing how the government practicing the politics of vendetta. Answering a question, Rana said that All Parties Conference (APC) will be held on September 20 and the PML-N will honour decisions taken in the conference.
