They said the party will continue its struggle to complete the mission of late Mir Murtaza Bhutto.Lashari alleged that Sindh Home Minister Zulfiqar Mirza had unleashed ‘a reign of terror against PPP-SB workers in Badin’.

He severely criticised the acquittal of Asif Ali Zardari in 15 cases and added that while innocent people accused of minor crimes were languishing in jails, Mr Zardari who was involved in murder cases had been acquitted.
