ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 17th Mar, 2018 ) :Disqualifying the thrice elected prime minister on the basis of 'Iqama' in the absence of authentic evidence of any corruption was a tragedy, as Wajid Zia had not been able to put the evidence in proper order till today which he collected through a London based company that had gone into bankruptcy.

This was stated by Minister of State for Information, Broadcasting, National History and Literary Heritage Ms. Marriyum Aurangzeb while talking to media outside the Accountability Court here Friday.

She said even the court had to point it out and ask him to arrange the evidence in proper sequence. The minister said the boxes of evidence collected by the stalwarts of the JIT, which was based on lies, was such that even after two years they were finding it difficult to pick up its ends.

The minister observed that Wajid Zia standing in court confessed that he was not aware of the content in the letter of the Qatari Prince.

She asked what kind of joke was it that the JIT report was compiled on the basis of ridiculous statements of the witnesses.

She posed a question as to what kind of graciousness was it and what was going on? She said what was happening was very regrettable. The MOS said it was a moment of introspection for the nation.

She said the entire nation was supporting the narrative of 'give respect to the vote' expounded by Muhammad Nawaz Sharif and God willing he would also emerge triumphant from the current phase as he had done nothing wrong.

Marriyum said Raza Rabbani not being chairman Senate was highly unfortunate for the senate as well as the parliament. The minister said the signing of Charter of Democracy with Benazir Bhutto and joining other alliances by the PML (N) was designed to strengthen democracy.

She said after the election of choice chairman and deputy chairman of Senate, the PML (N) would not support any party which danced at the finger of umpire.
