Lahore (Web Desk): Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Saturday said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Imran Khan who used foul language and leveled false allegations against his political opponents, now stood as the certified embodiment of falsehood, dishonesty and deceitfulness.
Addressing a press conference in Lahore, the premier said that the decision of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) over Toshakhana was not a matter of rejoice, but a matter of retrospection as the person who was continuously indulged in mud-slinging had been proved as a certified thief, liar and dishonest.
"Imran Niazi has been found guilty of corrupt practices by the ECP," PM Shehbaz said, adding that the person was brought to power with the worst kind of rigging.
The prime minister said that Imran Niazi had illegally sold out the precious gifts given by the friendly countries which brought bad name to the country.
PM Shehbaz said with the ECP’s decision, his stance had once again vindicated that the false allegations and political witch-hunting against them, during Imran Niazi’s tenure, was a result of NAB-Niazi connivance.
The prime minister also congratulated the nation over the Financial Action Task Force’s (FATF) announcement over the grey list.
He said Pakistan made enormous progress in the anti-money laundering and countering financing of terrorism domain fulfilling requirements of action plans.
"It was all possible due to the collective efforts, unity and sagacity of the nation and the hard work of all the relevant authorities, political leadership of the coalition government and the stakeholders," PM Shehbaz said.
The prime minister applauded the efforts of all concerned departments and agencies, both at the federal and provincial levels, to achieve this national objective.
