MULTAN, Oct 24: PML-N senior vice-president Makhdoom Javed Hashmi said on Friday that repatriation of Pakistanis' capital lying abroad could end country’s economic crisis.

Talking to newsmen at the local airport, he said that the capital lying abroad belonged to prominent political leaders and capitalists. He said the joint resolution passed by the Parliament was a clear message for the United States.

Hashmi said Pakistan had to safeguard its national and economic independence and any recourse to IMF and World Bank would not prove to be an elixir for the economic crisis. —APP
