Minister for Information, Transport and Mass Transit of Sindh, Sharjeel Inam Memon emphasized that in the eyes of the law, no one is above the law, and no one can be allowed to violate it. The leadership of the Peoples Party has consistently prioritized the supremacy of law and has consistently appeared before the courts. Addressing a press conference at the Archives Complex in Clifton, Karachi, he stated that every Pakistani citizen is subject to the law; no one is exempt from its provisions.
Sharjeel Memon said that our esteemed founding leader and beloved figure among the people, Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, was unjustly executed in a fabricated case. Numerous false charges were leveled against Benazir Bhutto, leading to her persecution. Despite these challenges, the Peoples Party has consistently advanced with a commitment to upholding the supremacy of law. The Minister for Information stated that political parties unequivocally condemn the use of petrol bombs in attacks on the police, and they do not engage in fear-mongering, the individual who once baselessly labeled others as thieves and criminals has now abandoned the facade of falsehood.
He pointed out that during the tenure of the former prime minister, former president Asif Ali Zardari was arrested, and Faryal Talpur was transferred from the hospital to jail on the night of Eid. While, we would never wish for women from any household to be involved in political opposition, this individual disregarded even basic societal norms, he added. This person attempted to tarnish the countrys reputation by exploiting the no-confidence motion. He remarked that the individual who sold a watch bearing the symbol of the Kaaba persistently propagated lies, yet faced no consequences, this person singled out political opponents with an authoritarian mindset. Sharjeel Memon emphasized that Asif Ali Zardari endured unjust imprisonment, yet he consistently upheld respect for institutions and the judiciary.
He reiterated that no entity surpasses the significance of the state, constitution, and the law. Anyone dissatisfied with a court decision has the full right to approach higher courts. The Sindh Information Minister criticized that the special treatment given to Ladla raises concerns, the PTI has gradually transformed into primarily a social media-oriented party.
Currently, social media is abuzz with unfounded rumors, urging people to stay indoors and creating a sense of intimidation. He earnestly appealed to the public not to heed such rumors and misinformation. Sharjeel Inam Memon stated that the Sindh government will ensure complete legal protection for citizens freedom of movement. However, it is emphasized that stringent measures will be taken against anyone attempting to take the law into their own hands. In response to questions, he clarified that peaceful protests will be facilitated in accordance with the law, but those who promote disorder will face legal consequences.
