DADU: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and former president Asif Ali Zardari have both been looting Pakistan for the past 30 years. They are both equally responsible for the destruction of the country, Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said on Sunday.

The PTI chairman said this while talking to reporters in Dadu.

“Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif should have resigned on moral grounds after the verdict of Supreme Court of Pakistan (SC),” he said.

Imran Khan said that the SC judges had rejected all the evidence presented by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), including the Qatari letter, and had all remarked that Nawaz Sharif was dishonest. Khan said that the two judges who had disqualified the prime minister were the future chief justices of Pakistan.

“The judges hearing the case have said that the prime minister is neither ‘Sadiq’ nor ‘Amin’. The country and all its government departments cannot be run under the command of this corrupt prime minister. If Nawaz Sharif had any honour, he would have resigned immediately after the SC verdict,” he said. “Those who distributed sweets following the Panama Case verdict are stupid,” he said.

Imran Khan said that Asif Ali Zardari had occupied 100,000 acres of land in Sindh through different methods. “Asif Ali Zardari is now the owner of 15 sugar mills. He has a billion dollars to his name. All this money belongs to Pakistan,” he said.

He invited the people to attend the rally that PTI was going to hold in Islamabad on April 28. “For the future of your children, you should all come to Islamabad to join the PTI public gathering,” he said.

He said that the PTI would hold more public gatherings in Sindh. He said that if the prime minister was corrupt, the rest of society also accepted corruption.

Awami Muslim League (AML) chairman Sheikh Rasheed also talked to the media and said the case was not over yet. “It is difficult to understand why the PML-N is distributing sweets. The people of Sindh are also against corruption and want to get rid of this dishonest leadership,” he said.
