"Hanif E Abbasi is out on bail and that's interesting."
"Hey, back off from the E."
"It's his middle name I heard... Ehsaas Abbasi."
"Don't be facetious."
"I heard that the first brick of the foundation for a new Pakistan was first laid by the grant of limited bail to Nawaz Sharif and Abbasi's bail is the second brick..."
"I would hope it's a multi-storey building - as you know The Khan wants housing for the future to be mainly multi story buildings and not horizontal expansion given the research that multistory buildings minimize use of utilities and protect environment better and..."
"Don't be facetious, besides if The Khan says multi-story Hanif Abbasi would say single story with more than two kanal of covered area and urge The Khan to demonstrate what he urges others to do in Bani Gala and...oh yes, file a petition."
"I guess you are right there - anyway I hear that National Accountability Bureau's prosecution remains extremely weak and their case preparation leaves a lot to be desired which accounts for recent relief to members of the PML-N leadership..."
"So why doesn't The Khan hire expensive lawyers for NAB?"
"The pay is not good and I doubt if..."
"There is a price. The PPPs dream team of lawyers have all held federal portfolios when the party is in power, the PML-N team of lawyers has held provincial as well as federal posts and lets be honest The Khan is paying a heavy political and economic price for keeping the coalition intact so my point is why not...."
"Why would the lawyers associated with PPP and their lower category counterparts in the PML-N opt to work for the Khan government?"
"Because my friend that has always been the way of our politics, old politics! Asad Umar did an Ishaq Dar by giving all the vocal critics some position or the other, so why not lure the lawyers, pay them what they want, give them ministries, I don't know....and ensure that NAB's case is not so easily over turned."
"Sad that; but true! I guess we witness the laying of a new foundation brick for a new Pakistan every couple of years."
"Indeed."
