Daily Times Fawad denounces move as a ‘travesty of justice’ PMLN president accuses govt of political victimisation
May 8, 2021
The Lahore High Court (LHC)’s decision on Friday to remove PMLN President Shehbaz Sharif from the blacklist to travel abroad for medical treatment has hit hard across the political divide.
“Such a haste is not seen in a panchayat [village council] decisions”, tweeted Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry. He lambasted the move a joke, while asking under which law of the land allows a man facing money laundering references to leave the country.
It appears that recent history is repeating itself. In 2019, former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, a convicted individual, was granted the same judicial courtesy when the LHC permitted him to travel to the United Kingdom to seek urgent medical treatment on the personal guarantee of the younger Sharif. Pakistan is still waiting for Nawaz to return.
