Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif addresses a public meeting at Dakhan, Shikarpur on Tuesday, May 15, 2012.—Online PhotoSHIKARPUR: Chief of the opposition Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N), Mian Mohammad Nawaz Sharif on Wednesday said that the Sindh card could no longer be used as it had “run out of credit,” DawnNews reported.
Speaking to reporters in Shikarpur, the PML-N chief blamed the country’s rulers of being disconnected from the people and oblivious to their problems.
He said it was time the government paid attention to the masses’ issues and served the people.
Moreover, the former prime minister alleged that Rehman Malik’s past was rife with graft cases, saying that the interior minister had previously been convicted by the courts.
“Who is he to accuse others? He is not an angel,” said Sharif. “He (Malik) joined forces with Zardari to save himself. Now they are only protecting each other.”
Malik has accused the PML-N chief of money-laundering and corruption worth $32 million — claims the interior minister vows to prove.
The Supreme Court is hearing a case into allegations that the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) illegally financed politicians in the 1990s through the now defunct Mehran Bank Limited. The bank’s former chief, Younis Habib, claims he delivered money by hand to the PML-N chief, and paid his brother, Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif, a sum of Rs 2.5 million.
The PML-N denies the allegations, calling the claims baseless and a “pack of lies”.
