Addressing a press conference with the league leaders after the arrest of the party president in a money laundering case, Maryam Nawaz said that today is a very sad day. They had already written a decision to arrest Shahbaz Sharif. They were being rounded up by the courts. Despite torturing the family, Shahbaz Sharif did not leave his brother behind. He was loyal to his party and his brother. Shahbaz Sharif's wife and sons were made public. Hamza Shahbaz was coronated but is still in jail.
Maryam Nawaz said that the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) did not see the house of BRT, Billion Tree Tsunami and Imran Khan. Hundreds of franchises did not come out in the name of Shahbaz Sharif. He had said that if I have to be caught, then I am standing with my brother. He was arrested on charges of standing with his brother, not on any charges.
Addressing the rival politicians, she said that they should do whatever they want, but the screams of the opponents will come out from "N" and not "Sh". An inexperienced person was imposed on the nation. Don't consider the respite given to Imran Khan as your cunning. The PML-N will not leave the field empty for the government.
She said that if Imran Khan was supported in the same way then the matter would get out of the hands of PML-N.
Imran Khan fears that Shahbaz Sharif may be a substitute. Shahbaz Sharif is not only an alternative but also a choice in the eyes of the people of Punjab. Don't consider the respite given to Imran Khan as your cunning. Institutions have imposed inexperienced people, they should think. No one has defamed the institutions more than Imran Khan. Now everyone has to think.
She admitted that Shahbaz Sharif has been thinking of reconciliation for 30 years but when Nawaz Sharif's decision comes, Surkham admits. Today he was punished for it.
Talking on the occasion, Ahsan Iqbal reacted strongly to the arrest of the party president and said that Shahbaz Sharif was arrested through NAB terror. His arrest is the worst tragedy for the nation. Today is another dark day in Pakistan's politics.
He said that he wanted to warn the federal government that the voters of Gilgit-Baltistan would protect the mandate of PML-N. The arrest of Shahbaz Sharif is aimed at preventing him from campaigning. Shahbaz Sharif was arrested for obstructing the success of PML-N.
He said that our government has done record development work in Gilgit-Baltistan. The opposition is being stifled to form a one-party state. Shahbaz Sharif was arrested through conspiracy. Today is another dark day for Pakistan's democracy.
