ISLAMABAD
\nInformation Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb has said that the coalition government will resist any decision announced by Chief Justice of Pakistan Umar Ata Bandial in favour of PTI chief Imran Khan \u201cout of fear of his [CJP] mother-in-law\u201d in Punjab polls delay case.
\nIn a series of tweets on Monday, the minister said if the chief justice gave a verdict in favour of PTI chief Imran Khan not because of the Constitution, but due to the fear of the mother-in-law, and advice of children and wives, then this will not be allowed to happen.
\n\u201cNeither will the nation forgive those who play with the Constitution, nor will we spare them,\u201d she added. Her statement comes a day after the latest leaked audio clip allegedly featuring the mother-in-law of CJP Bandial and the wife of a PTI lawyer emerged on social media.
\nIn the audio, both could purportedly be heard discussing the ongoing political crisis and a high-profile case being heard by the apex court.
\nReferring to the audio clip, Marriyum said it was strange that a \u201cwoman had become spokesperson of those who threw shoes at the poster of her son-in-law\u201d.
\nShe said when the Constitution and justice fall victim to the advice of foreign agents, sons-in-law, daughters-in-law, children and mothers-in-law, then the country has to suffer at the hands \u201cImran-like thieves, liars, who brought inflation and unemployment\u201d.
\nNow, elections will be held on time and not on the advice of Bajwa and the mother-in-law of anyone, the minister added.
\nTaking a jibe at the PTI chief, she asked Imran not to play with people\u2019s minds and don\u2019t tell lies in the face of the nation.
\nShe said that this was a reason that a \u201cfraudster\u201d had to put the black canister on his face.
\nShe also called Imran \u201cshameless\u201d for admitting that he dissolved the provincial assemblies of Punjab and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa on the advice of former army chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa.
\nThe minister said that for the sake of power, Imran Khan insulted the people of Punjab and K-P, mocked their representatives and dissolved their elected assemblies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
