Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Syed Khursheed Ahmed Shah on Tuesday said that corruption cases initiated against him by National Accountability Bureau (NAB) are nothing but politically motivated. While talking to journalists at the Parliament House, the former opposition leader in the National Assembly said, "I actually saved billions of rupees of the national exchequer. The issue is as simple as this...when you speak, the cases are formed. I invited the government to probe the corruption cases against me."
"If there is an inquiry against me then let the Parliament take it up. If there was a case against me then why an investigation wasn't launched when I was the leader of opposition," he pointed out. He criticized the method of running fake news pertaining to the cases against him. "It is inappropriate to insult me by getting the media run fake news pertaining to my cases. Till date nobody has questioned my integrity, and forming these cases against me is regrettable."
The Sukkur's wing of NAB has contacted different departments to obtain details of Shah's assets. The politician's son and son-in-law have also been made part of investigation by the anti-graft body.
