ISLAMABAD: Federal Railways Minister and senior PML-N leader Khawaja Saad Rafique has appealed the Supreme Court to take notice of comments being made outside over its observations, remarks and questions during the proceeding of the Panamapapers case.
Talking to media persons outside the Supreme Court on Thursday, he said through these interaction with the media, character assassination of each other must stop. He said the PML-N would take the lead and not speak after the court proceedings on Friday.
However if the PTI did not stop this, the PML-N would restart interaction with the media. He said it is not appropriate to give lectures after the court proceedings and stressed that the politicians and the media should not become judges.
The Railways Minister said the politicians should avoid vitiating the atmosphere in the country. He said Imran Khan forces them to adopt a harsh language because he levels baseless allegations and they just respond to them.
Saad Rafique said he regretted his remarks about Sheikh Rashid yesterday. He pointed out that hundreds of thousands of people remit their earnings to their families back home. Similarly Hussain Nawaz sent to the money to his father.
To a question, Kh Saad Rafiq said that Benazir Bhutto was a big leader and the void created by death has not been filled yet.
