Leghari ‘identifies’ plunderers

Published October 4, 2002

DERA GHAZI KHAN, Oct 3: Army generals, bureaucrats and politicians are involved in plundering the national wealth.

This was stated by Millat Party chief Sardar Farooq Ahmed Khan Leghari while speaking to a public gathering at the Stadium Ground here on Thursday evening.

He alleged that former premiers Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif had exploited the masses and went abroad with Rs2 billion dollars each.

He said the poor masses were willing for a change as they were deprived of justice. More than 50 million people were living under the poverty line, he said.

Former MNA Atiya Inayatullah, BNM president Moheem Khan Baloch, Sardar Owais Khan Leghari, Sardar Jaafar Khan Leghari, Sardar Javed Akhtar Khan Lund and other also spoke on the occasion.
