Bilawal slams govt for lodging ‘fake cases’ against jiyalas

Author: Staff Report

Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Sunday condemned the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government for ‘implicating party workers in fake cases’ following protests against irrational and unprecedented increase in the petroleum prices.

“The PTI government has, through authoritarian and tyrant actions, proved that it is a shadow government of the dictators. The increase in petroleum prices will impact every section of life and dearness and poverty graph will further escalate. But, it appears that the government has finalised preparations for inflicting state atrocities onto the protesters protesting unbearable inflation in the country,” the PPP chairman said in a statement.

Bilawal said the ‘absconder’ and ‘puppet’ prime minister is now fully bent upon depriving the people of their just democratic right to protest. “The government drowned in sheer vengeance and hate has also booked a late jiyala (worker) in a fake case,” he claimed.

The PPP chairman asked the prime minister that instead of implicating jiyalas in fake cases, he should tender unconditional apology to the people for ‘telling lies’. He also demanded that all fake cases registered against jiyalas in Multan, Lodhran, Dera Ghazi Khan and Bahawalpur should be immediately withdrawn.
