Finance Minister Ishaq Dar visibly upset over a question about his alleged involvement in a money laundering case, which led to abrupt end of his news conference''s question-hour session on the Economic Survey. Finance Minister explained that a dictator had taken his signatures forcefully and even offered him a portfolio of senior minister in his cabinet.
Dar added that he had turned down his offer in the presence of six generals. The document was also subsequently thrown into trash bin by the court of law declaring that signatures under duress could not become a proof or evidence in the case, he added. Media persons asked the question with reference to actions against the Axact''s news channel and stated that foreign media also carried news reports against him and others as well but no action was taken. Dar said that proceedings in fake degree are proceeding as per law.
