Advisor to Chief Minister Sindh on Information, Law and Anti-corruption, Barrister Murtaza Wahab has said that no decision has been taken to change chief executive in the province and we would face all frivolous and fabricated allegations contained in the JIT report and prove our innocence in the court of law.
Talking to media on Friday, he said that no one could step down on merely inquiry basis as there were inquiries pending against the Prime Minister, Defence Minister, Chief Minister KPK and others but none of them had resigned. Responding to a query, he said that Sindh government could not exert its influence on the cases as the inquiry was being carried out by the federal government agencies and institutions.
"Hence, point of interference and interruption by the Sindh government in the case is beyond the understanding," he said and added that Sindh government and Pakistan Peoples Party were convinced that they were dragged into these cases in order to malign PPP and for the sake political scoring. He said that PTI has failed to gain power in Sindh through democratic and legal way and now using these tactics to pressurise Sindh government. He added that we have faced these pressures in past and are quite prepared to face them again.
He said that Pakistan Peoples Party is a political reality and everyone has to accept it and added that they would exercise their political and democratic rights in constitutional ambit and would not do politics of violence and shutting down cities and blocking roads as PTI followed in the past. He said that we would fight our cases in court of law and prove our innocence.
He said that engineered material has been incorporated in JIT report which is based on ill intentions. He said that it is a basic requirement of law to summon people who were mentioned in any enquiry but chief minister Sindh, former chief minister and ministers under allegations were never summoned by the Joint Investigation Team.
He said that findings of JIT would have been different, had they done little research before compiling report based on neutrality. The spokesman for provincial government said that people of the province were behind them and they had given them full mandate time and again.
