ISLAMABAD   -   Minister for Information and Broadcasting Chaudhry Fawad Hussain has said that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President and Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif was accused of sending Rs 25 billion out of Pakistan through forgery.

In a tweet, the minister said so far, the said amount had just been traced but, the real figure could be much higher than that.

The minister regretted that the opposition leader was not willing to give answers to the queries of Federal Investigation Agency’s team and only made lame excuses.

Fawad remarked that release of Shehbaz Sharif from jail was not less than a joke.

He said that on queries Shehbaz used to say that children might be aware and know about the resources, but they were made to flee from the country.
