LAHORE, Nov 05, (SABAH): Prime Minister Mian Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif has requested Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Umar Ata Bandial for constituting a full court commission to probe into the Wazirabad and senior journalist Arshad Sharif murder incidents.
Addressing a news conference in Lahore on Saturday along with Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb and SAPM Malik Muhammad Ahmed Khan, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that he will soon write a letter to the Chief Justice Supreme Court of Pakistan in this regard.
Shehbaz Sharif said he will also request the Chief Justice of Pakistan that the same commission should also investigate the murder of senior journalist, Muhammad Arshad Sharif. He said the Federal government will extend complete cooperation to this commission.
He said that the nation deserves the right to know the fact and it is need of the hour to ascertain the reality in order to eradicate anarchy sabotage related activities in the society.
While condemning the politics of Imran Khan, the Prime Minister said Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf Chairman has been continuing the malicious campaign against institutions, which is helping to fulfill the enemy’s agenda.
He said Pakistan’s Armed forces have rendered matchless sacrifices in the war against terrorism. He said the PTI chief is misleading the nation by leveling false allegations, spreading propaganda and speaking blatant lies.
The Prime Minister said the PTI government registered fake cases against its political opponents.
Condemning the Wazirabad incident of firing on PTI’s Long March, the Prime Minister said that the Interior Ministry has been directed to investigate the incident.
He said that as the security of the Long March is responsibility of the Punjab government, however, it is a big question mark that no FIR has been registered so far.
The Prime Minister raised the question that why Imran Khan was taken to Shaukat Khanum Hospital immediately after the Wazirabad incident. He said extremism in the politics cannot be tolerated and the leveling baseless allegations on institutions should also be stopped.
He said Imran Khan used the killing of senior journalist Arshad Sharif for political objectives and also used religious card against his political opponents. Shehbaz Sharif also prayed for early recovery of PTI chief Imran Khan and other injured persons.
