ISLAMABAD
\nThe federal cabinet on Friday, while endorsing the statement by Pakistan Army spokesperson, called for no leniency against those involved in the organised violence against state, constitution, law and nation\u2019s dignity on May 9, following the arrest of Imran Khan in a corruption case.
\nThe cabinet, chaired by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif here, also called for making such elements an example by taking strict action against them under constitution and the law.
\nThe meeting expressed concerns over the situation in the country, and said the leader of a \u2018miscreant and foreign funded\u2019 party had done to the country which the enemy could not do during the last 75 years.
\nLaw Minister Azam Nazeer Tarar briefed the meeting about the arrest of PTI chief Imran Khan in Al Qadir Trust corruption case as per law and his sudden release on the order of Supreme Court of Pakistan.
\nThe federal cabinet paid homage to the people of Pakistan for showing indifference to the arrest of the mastermind of Rs 60 billion corruption, anti-state activities and terrorism and instead supported the constitution and law.
\nThe federal cabinet also paid tribute to the armed forces, Pakistan Rangers, police and law enforcement agencies for risking their lives to protect the lives and properties of the people as well as the government amidst firing by the armed miscreants.
\nThe meeting expressed solidarity with the law enforcement agencies and made it clear that they stood by them for action against those creating lawlessness. The federal cabinet expressed concern over the \u2018interference\u2019 by Chief Justice of Pakistan in an \u2018 open and shut\u2019 case of corruption and corrupt practices which led to the arrest of Imran Khan as per the law.
\nThe meeting also regretted President Arif Alvi\u2019s letter to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Thursday which the cabinet members believed was tantamount to acting like a party worker, instead of the head of state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
