Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Thursday evening withdrew its announcement to hold symbolic protests across various cities of the country to demand resignation of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. The call off came right after the Supreme Court announcement that verdict in Panama Papers case will be released on Friday (today) that was reserved on July 21.
Addressing a press conference, PTI leader Usman Dar, Fawad Chaudhry and Faisal Javed said that they would take legal action against Federal Ministers Khawaja Asif and Ahsan Iqbal for having Iqamas. The PTI leaders said that they will also submit ineligibility references in Election Commission of Pakistan against Defence Minister Khawaja Asif and Minister for Planning and Development Ahsan Iqbal.
"Khawaja Asif takes 50,000 Dirhams from his Abu Dhabi employer," Usman Dar said while Fawad Chaudhry claimed that more names will be revealed in the near future in Iqama Leaks other than PM Nawaz Sharif, Khawaja Asif, Ahsan Iqbal and Finance Minister Ishaq Dar whose Iqamas have been publicly displayed.
PTI leaders had previously announced that they will place protest camps across different cities of the country from Friday to force PM Nawaz to resign before the Supreme Court gives its final verdict. Usman Dar also questioned as to where wife of Khawaja Asif was getting billions of rupees to invest in a housing society.
