Pak minister says PPP not afraid of accountability

Hafizabad , Mon, 04 Jan 2010 ANI

Hafizabad, Jan 4 (ANI): Pakistan's Minister for Information and Broadcasting Qamar Zaman Kaira has said that the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) had never been afraid of accountability, but it wanted a transparent system of accountability for all those who had plundered the national exchequer.

 

He said that judges, generals, politicians and all those who had played a dubious role in the past should be held accountable, and not only the PPP workers and leaders. aira said President Asif Ali Zardari had been put behind bars for a long time because of political victimisation of the type under which judicial murder of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto had taken place, The Dawn reports.

 

"I ask all the opponents of the PPP to tell me what is the crime of President Zardari. If our crime is to support poor people of the country we shall continue to do it."

 

Kaira said the PPP was striving to scrap constitutional amendments made by dictators.

 

He said the PPP had given the 1973 Constitution to the country and would now restore it to its original form with the support of all the federating units.

 

Kaira said the PPP had not registered politically motivated cases against its opponents despite having been the worst victim of such cases and its workers and leaders had rendered supreme sacrifices for the cause of democracy.

 

He said Pakistan Muslim League-N chief Nawaz Sharif had spent a few months in jail and reached a deal to leave the country to save his life.

 

His return to Pakistan was made possible only because of the arrangement that the late Benazir Bhutto had made with Pervez Musharraf in the shape of the National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO).

 

He said the party had to take difficult and unpopular decisions to face the challenges of protecting national interests. (ANI)
