Special Assistant to the Prime Minister (SAPM) on Political Communication Dr Shahbaz Gill said on Wednesday the opposition was set to face more challenges as more looted public money was being unearthed by the government institutions in near future.
Talking to the media outside the Chief Minister Secretariat during Prime Minister’s day-long visit to the provincial metropolis, he said Rs 550 billion had already been recovered, adding that the recovered money would be utilized to provide more facilities to the masses.
Shahbaz Gill, in disguised sarcasm towards PML-N leadership, said the PML-N leadership must be thanked for making paupers and poor employees billionaires, adding that Shehbaz Sharif and Hamza Shehbaz drew billions of rupees from the bank accounts of Maqsood, a petty peon, to launder money.
‘Medals should be awarded to the PML-N leaders for changing the plight of common peons through their corrupt practices’, he said, adding the ill-gotten money was transferred to the bank accounts without knowledge of the account-holders.
The SAPM said that opposition leaders had got together in defense of their corruption and travelling to the length and breadth of the country to save themselves, adding that the thieves stand in a huddle once that were faced with accountability.
