Summary Marriyum was speaking to journalists outside accountability court.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - State Minister for Information Marriyum Aurangzeb said on Monday that exemption is granted to Imran Khan everyday but Nawaz don’t receive it to visit ailing wife.
Speaking to journalists outside accountability court, she criticized that this action is a clear violation of basic human rights.
"The ‘ladla’ who attacked the parliament gets exemption everyday however; Nawaz Sharif who appears before the court on daily basis is not granted a single exemption to visit his ailing wife. What is this if not the violation of basic human rights," she said.
She asserted that record of the person whose corruption is famous in the entire world goes missing from NAB. “All the accusation leveled against Nawaz Sharif by Wajid Zia have been proven wrong,” the minister pronounced.
Marriyum maintained that whenever Nawaz Shari goes out of the country, the opposition rejoices that maybe he will never return now but all their hopes fade with time.
“Nawaz and Maryam have reached Pakistan to attend the NAB hearing while leaving behind an ailing wife and daughter. The opponents who themselves hide behind exemptions cannot exercise any sort of politics,” she added.
Nawaz and Maryam reached Islamabad from London in the wee hours of Monday after the court rejected their exemption from hearing pleas and directed to attend the proceedings.
They had arrived in London on Wednesday night to visit Kulsoom Nawaz, wife of Nawaz Sharif, who is undergoing cancer treatment at a hospital.
They applied for exemption from hearing in accountability court however; their plea was turned down by the judge.
During the proceedings headed by Justice Mohammad Bashir, the hearing of Avenfield reference was till 2pm due to absence of head of Panama Joint Investigation Team (JIT) Wajid Zia while Al-Azizia case will be heard on Tuesday at 11pm.
