“[Both] Asif Ali Zardari and Faryal Talpur were arrested without any conviction against them,” he claimed. “Zardari was arrested the day the government released the Economic Survey 2019, which highlighted PTI’s economic performance… the worst in history,” he added. “This budget would not be legal if it is passed without issuing the production orders of arrested lawmakers,” he said. He also called for investigation into the leak of the controversial videos of NAB Chairman Justice (r) Javed Iqbal, saying it was done by the ruling party to pressurise him. “There is no difference between the government of former military ruler Pervez Musharraf and PTI… both the regimes curtailed media freedom and attempted to bring judiciary under control,” the PPP chairman said.
