Islamabad (April 23, 2018): State Minister for Information Marriyum Aurangzeb said on Monday that exemption is granted to Imran Khan everyday but Nawaz doesn’t receive it to visit ailing wife.
Speaking to journalists outside accountability court, she criticized that this action is a clear violation of basic human rights. “The ‘ladla’ who attacked the parliament gets exemption everyday however; Nawaz Sharif who appears before the court on daily basis is not granted a single exemption to visit his ailing wife. What is this if not the violation of basic human rights,” she said.

She asserted that record of the person whose corruption is famous in the entire world goes missing from NAB. “All the accusation leveled against Nawaz Sharif by Wajid Zia have been proven wrong,” the minister pronounced.
Marriyum maintained that whenever Nawaz Shari goes out of the country, the opposition rejoices that maybe he will never return now but all their hopes fade with time.
“Nawaz and Maryam have reached Pakistan to attend the NAB hearing while leaving behind an ailing wife and daughter. The opponents who themselves hide behind exemptions cannot exercise any sort of politics,” she added.
It is pertinent to mention here that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif and his daughter Maryam Nawaz late on Sunday returned home from London to appear before the accountability court in Avenfield reference.

Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, who was disqualified by the Supreme Court last year, is due to appear in court today (Monday) over allegations linked to London properties the family owns.
Last week Nawaz Sharif along with his daughter went London to see his ailing wife Begum Kulsoom who has been getting treatment there for months.
Their arrival has brought all the speculations to an end as some analysts had predicted that Nawaz might not return because of a likely conviction in corruption cases against him.
An accountability court on Friday had granted a one-day exemption to Nawaz and Maryam from personal appearance in the Avenfield Apartments reference, while rejecting their applications seeking exemption till April 27.
