Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Spokesperson Marriyum Aurangzeb on Sunday lashed out at National Accountability Bureau (NAB) and said that the accountability watchdog should rename itself to “Noon Accountability Bureau” because of its black law.
Criticising NAB’s case against former Punjab chief minister and PML-N president Shehbaz Sharif, spokesperson Marrium Aurangzeb said that creating a case about assets beyond income has become a new trend.
Sh
e added that the accountability watchdog should formally change its name to “Noon Accountability Bureau”.
“NAB is using its black law against politicians. In January 2018, Saaf Pani case was initiated against Shehbaz Sharif. When nothing was found in that, he was arrested in the Ashiana Housing Scheme.”
The PML-N leader further questioned why NAB was quiet on the Malam Jabba land case?
“Why has the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) chief minister not been arrested yet? If Shehbaz can be arrested, then KP chief minister can be arrested as well. Why is not a case regarding unl
awful use of powers by the Prime Minister (PM) made? Why isn’t
the use of government helicopter for personal u
se not being investi
gated?” she further asked.
Speaking about the premier’s sister Aleema Khan, Marriyum Aurangzeb asked why her assets and money laundering allegations were not being investi
gated.
“PM Imran Khan is the real owner of Aleema Khan’s illegal property,” sh
e added.
Turning to the premier’s close friend Jahangir Tareen, Aurangzeb inquired why the accountability watchdog was not investigating him.
“Jahangir Tareen laundered money through his wife and children. Why hasn’t the Supreme Court taken suo motu notice yet?” she asked.
