Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) spokesperson Fawad Chaudhry on Wednesday criticised members of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, for protesting outside the accountability court in Islamabad.
According to the media reports, Chaudhry was speaking to the media after former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif appeared before the accountability court in the hearing of the two remaining corruption references against him and his family. A large number of PML-N members had gathered outside the court in protest yesterday to support their leader.
The PTI spokesperson said, ”if PML-N continued with this attitude, then there is a chance Sharif’s jail trial will be reviewed.”
When asked about the alliance between PML-N and PPP, Chaudhary called the alliance ‘unnatural’ and said that it cannot work for a longer period.
On the subject of PTI’s nominee for chief minister Punjab jab, Chaudhary said that the decision should be expected in a day or two.
PTI’s spokesman also said that problems are being created regarding the elections of next president of Pakistan. “The Election Commission of Pakistan has yet to release the schedule regarding the election of the president,” he said. Talking about the oath-taking ceremony of PM-elect Imran khan, Chaudhay said that Imran Khan will wear a sherwani similar to the one worn by Quaid-e-Azam.
“Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah also took oath wearing a sherwani and so will Imran Khan,” he added.
