“However much of a deal and leeway you had to be provided, you have been,” Shahbaz Gill tells the Sharifs
Faisalabad
Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Political Communication Shahbaz Gill on Sunday claimed that Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif has “asked for a deal for four people”.
Addressing a media conference in the city, Shahbaz Gill said to the Sharifs: “However much of a deal and leeway you had to be provided, you have been.”
He said that it is “not as if you are out on a shopping trip, that you are seeking a deal”.
He further said that the Sharif family will never be given a deal. “You have Imran Khan standing in your way,” he said.
Speaking of the particulars of the so-called “deal”, Gill claimed that it is sought for Nawaz, “his daughter”, Shahbaz, and “his son”. He went on to claim that the request is for the latter three individuals to be allowed to leave the country, whereas “Shahid Khaqan Abbasi will stay”.
“We won’t even give you a boiled potato, and here you are asking for a chicken burger deal,” he remarked, adding: “The Sharif family is asking for a burger deal which also includes a toy.”
Gill claimed that he met Nawaz thrice while he was hospitalised in Pakistan, and that the PML-N supremo “would plead to be let go”.
The premier’s aide said that the government seeks to bring back Nawaz, who is currently residing in London after travelling there to seek medical treatment in November 2019. He claimed that Nawaz is “being put on a plane and sent here” and that he will “go to jail when he arrives”.
