Money laundering proofs against Shehbaz Sharif claimed

Lahore  -  Special Assistant to Chief Minister (SACM) and Punjab government’s spokesman Hasaan Khawer, in a statement issued on Sunday, said that the founder of ‘Sheen-League’ Shehbaz Sharif and his son Hamza earned a bad name for their family by laundering billions of rupees.

“There is not a single penny in the account of Shehbaz Sharif, but the bank accounts of his servants have billions of rupees. The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has got solid evidence of money laundering against Shehbaz Sharif,” he said. He asked Shehbaz Sharif to answer how he made fortunes and established a business empire worth billions of rupees from an iron furnace.

Hasaan further said name of the Sharif family was on top of those families that polluted Pakistani politics for their vested interests. “The so-called ‘Khadim-e-Aala’ earned billions of rupees through kickbacks and commissions,” he alleged and questioned: “Is there any business in Pakistan which grows 100 times faster.”

He added: “Theft and embezzlement is the hallmark of Shehbaz Sharif and his family,” he said and added that they had been exposed in front of the nation. “They are ‘Sharif Thugs’ who robbed the national exchequer by taking commissions in projects,” he said and added that Shehbaz Sharif had always ditched the nation on every important issue. “Now, these elements cannot fool the nation anymore,” he said.
