\nVice President of the Insaf Women Wing Khyber Pkahtunkhwa (KP) and ex-chairperson of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Commission on Status of Women (KPCSW) Neelum Khan Toru has urged the absconding leader of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Mian Nawaz Sharif to return to the country from London and face corruption cases against him in courts of the law.
\nMian Nawaz Sharif had left the country last year for only 4 weeks on medical reasons and his younger brother Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif had given a guarantee that Nawaz would return within the prescribed time, however, Neelum Khan Toru said almost a year is about to pass, neither did Nawaz Sharif undergo any medical check-up nor did he care to return to the country after expiry of the given time.
\n\u201cIronically, Shahbaz Sharif when asked about the guarantee at a press conference tried to hide behind the plea that the matter is sub-judice and when the journalists persisted said he never gave any guarantee of Nawaz\u2019 return.\u201d
\nNeelum Toru said Shahbaz Sharif\u2019s hand-written submission is safe with the authorities and he cannot deny it. If Nawaz Sharif doesn\u2019t return to the country and face accountability trial, Shahbaz Sharif should be held in his place, she said.
\nDaily we see Sharif\u2019s picture strolling in a park or walking on London\u2019s streets or taking coffee at a roadside caf\u00e9. This amounts to belittling rule of law in Pakistan and reflects the absconding leader\u2019s mindset that he has little regard for his word of honour or for the courts of the country.
\nToru said Prime Minister Imran Khan has made it clear on several occasions that the PTI government would not strike any deal with the plunderers of the country\u2019s wealth and would hold all the looters accountable. She said in case Nawaz doesn\u2019t return to the country, the government should bring him back through diplomatic channels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
