Javed Latif a senior PML-N leader known for his hardline stance on Thursday questioned why the events related to the May 9 violence was being swept under the carpet and said the nation must be informed about the origin of facilitators.
An attempt was underway to make the upcoming general elections controversial in continuation of the overall conspiracies, Latif told reporters in Lahore, adding that those who orchestrated the May 9 and May violence were not being punished. The PML-N leader said he had been reminding even during the 16-month coalition government that the PTI leadership was being actively facilitated.
Pressing his argument, Latif said courts had binned the bogus cases filed against the PML-N leaders by acquitting them of all the charges, but the foreign funding case was being delayed despite the fact people asking about the origins of the money received by the PTI.
Latif said signing the Charter of Democracy resulted in political stability and peaceful transfer of power for 10 years – from 2008 to 2018 – but those desirous of creating a third force brought a philosophy of ruining everything. They continued destroying Pakistan for four years, he added.—INP
