Claims Imran’s govt will not complete its term
Staff Reporter Islamabad
Former president Asif Ali Zardari said on Tuesday that those who brought Prime Minister Imran Khan into power now admit that they made a mistake. Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) co-chair made the remarks while talking to the media, following his appearance in the Islamabad accountability court earlier today.
“Imran Khan’s government will not complete its term. Now Allah knows best how to fix this mistake,” the former president added.
Replying to a question about the recent controversy regarding former chief justice Saqib Nisar, Zardari said that “we have already seen this. In the past, Justice Qayyum had a tape [phone calls] with Saifur Rehman and some friends.”
The former president was referring to a telephonic conversation between ex-senator Saifur Rehman and Justice (retd) Abdul Qayyum, calling it substantial evidence of the falsity of cases instituted by the previous governments against assassinated former premier Benazir Bhutto and Zardari.
When asked about Maryam Nawaz’s petition, the PPP leader refused to comment and said that “Maryam is like a daughter to me.”
