Governor opposes filing cases against political opponents

Updated 07 Oct, 2020

LAHORE: Governor Punjab Chaudhry Mohammad Sarwar said on Tuesday that he never called anyone a traitor and do not believe in filing cases against political opponents.

Talking to media after addressing a seminar on ‘National Message of Pakistan,’ here on Tuesday, he made it clear that the case of mutiny against the PML-N leaders has nothing to do with the PTI government, including himself. “It is necessary to investigate why and who registered the case. I think this case should not have been registered. Prime Minister Imran Khan has also expressed his displeasure over this case,” he said. “There are pictures of complainant Badr Rashid with the PML-N and other people because he keeps on changing parties.” Sarwar said it was unfortunate that he was alleged to have involvement in a case of mutiny against the PML-N leaders. “Political members and other people come to meet me in the Governor’s House. If a person files a lawsuit against someone, it does not mean that I am behind it,” he clarified.
