Nawaz’s return on cards: PML
ISLAMABAD, March 22: The exiled president of Pakistan Muslim League Mian Nawaz Sharif can return home whenever he was needed, for he was not bound by any protocol between Islamabad and Riyadh.
This was stated by the close aide of Nawaz Sharif and party’s information secretary Siddiqul Farooq in an informal chat with this correspondent.
He said, those government functionaries who claimed that Nawaz had left the country under certain agreement with the government have failed to show any piece of such a written paper so far which exposes their claims.
When asked whether the Musharraf government had any formal or informal contact with the exiled party leader or any of his emissary the former chairman HBFC said, “attempts were made by certain government organs but right now there was no formal contact with the party at any stage”.
Talking about the proposed referendum for Gen Musharraf’s election as president, he said, so far as our party is concerned, we believe that the general has no right to stay in power through such unconstitutional tactics.
