ISLAMABAD, Nov 16 (SABAH): Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Co-Chairman and former president Asif Ali Zardari on Tuesday said Imran Khan’s government would not complete its five-year tenure.

“Those who brought Prime Minister Imran Khan are now admitting that they committed a mistake,” said the former president, adding that they are now figuring out how to undo that mistake.

“Only Allah knows best how they can fix this mistake,” Zardari said while speaking to reporters during his appearance at an accountability court.

Replying to a question about ex-chief justice Gilgit-Baltistan Rana Shamim’s affidavit, the former president said: “We have already seen this. Justice Qayyum had a tape with Saif-ur-Rehman and some friends as well.”

When asked a question relating to Maryam Nawaz’s petition, Asif Ali Zardari said he would not talk about it as “Maryam Nawaz is like a daughter to me.” Asif Zardari said he could not comment about the petition of Maryam Nawaz.

Meanwhile the accountability court judge Syed Asghar Ali has approved Asif Ali Zardari’s pre-arrest bail in New York property caste. The court has directed Asif Zardari to submit surety bonds worth Rs 0.5 million.
