ISLAMABAD: Former Prime Minister and PML-N leader Shahid Khaqan Abbasi has said that everyone is pious on the issue of C-Pak at present. The NAB is required to hold accountable every person who receives a salary from the exchequer.

Talking to media persons after his appearance in the accountability court, he said that everyone is pious on the issue of C-Pack but there is no exception for those who started this project. The bill was passed in the National Assembly that NAB would have no authority over C-Pack. They want the NAB to be abolished so that the country can run.

Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said that strange things are happening in the country at the moment. Money is going out of the pockets of the people but no one is going to ask. Corruption in sugar has gone up to Rs 300 billion and wheat to Rs 400 billion. What corruption has the government caught in these two years?

He asked the federal ministers to tell what their ministries have done. Ministers are busy insulting all day long. Prime Minister Imran Khan has appointed people who cannot answer.

Answering a question, he said that the court was awaiting a suo motu notice regarding the kidnapping of IG Sindh. It should be known who kidnapped IG Sindh. Talking about the issue of posters of former Speaker National Assembly Ayaz Sadiq, he said that posters were put up in Lahore but the address of those who put them up is unknown. Explain on whose money the posters were put up.
