‘Not afraid of fake cases, arrests,’ Maryam hits out at NAB

Must Read


Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PM-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz said on Wednesday that she was not afraid of fake cases or arrests, adding that the National Accountability Bureau can arrest her to show the world how afraid they are of the truth.

“Power can temporarily suppress the truth; but it will eventually come to light,” she said.

Talking to media outside the Islamabad High Court (IHC), Maryam stated that the NAB has requested for her and her husband’s bail to be cancelled, stating that she felt like "children were scared" when she read the petition.

“I want to meet the ‘close friend’ who filed the petition against my bail. This person should be given a 22-gun salute,” she sarcastically remarked.

Maryam said that there were no two opinions about the constitutional rights given to a prime minister.

“However, [PM] Imran Khan is neither a constitutional, nor legal, nor an elected prime minister,” she claimed, adding that the premier relies on "magic" to run a country of 220 million people.

“When important appointments are made on the basis of witchcraft and ghosts, then obviously the institutions of the country will be turned into a spectacle,” she further remarked.

Maryam questioned why the premier’s "spells" could not be used for public welfare if they are so "successful".

“Why can’t these ‘spells’ be used to lower the prices of wheat, petrol and medicine? Why are they only used for important appointments?” she questioned, claiming that the new appointment isn’t for the country, but to save oneself.

Maryam further stated that "PM Imran should not attempt to be Nawaz Sharif by now  asking for the vote to be respected.

“Wearing the skin of a lion does not make you a lion. One has to endure jail and go to the Attock fort to demand for the vote to be respected,” she said.

“He has nothing to do with democracy and democratic struggle, but will have to answer for crushing people’s vote, and for burdening Pakistan with historical debts,” she maintained.
