Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader former Justice Wajihuddin Ahmed has said that the traces of corruption in the country have led the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to the government and it is because of this very reason that the top anti-graft body is being made controversial.
Talking to media at lunching of a plantation campaign in Hyderabad, he said that attempts were being made to amend NAB law to making the institution toothless.
Justice Wajih said that PTI members who were elected as a result of the last intra-party elections had great influence on Imran Khan's thinking. "These members are pro-status quo and Imran should have had an idea about this till now," he said.
The former justice of the Supreme Court expressed solidarity with the former Director General (DG) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Ehtisab Commission, who resigned under protest against amendments to the Commission law, which slipped DG's powers.
Wajih said that the country's biggest problem was corruption and not a significant person has been punished in the past 70 years for corruption. He further added that time will tell that the Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) project was aimed at filling the pockets of a few.
