ISLAMABAD: Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Ameer Sirajul Haq on Tuesday again requested for an inquiry commission with the mandate to investigate the Panamascandal and the corrupt people’s accountability.
The JI chief – while talking to media persons outside the Supreme Court (SC) – emphasised that the Panamagate case should be taken to its logical conclusion before the month ends.
“All the political parties are of the view that a commission should be formed,”he said in a thin-veiled reference to the previously made suggestion of forming a commission – who has to complete the inquiry within 25 days.
He said that his party presented four bills that moved towards eradicatingcorruption from the country but the government shelvedthem in cold stores. The JI chief accused the government of burying the bills by using delaying tactics to hide its own corruption.
“Military courts are the mistress on civil courts and can be accepted for some certain time but not as a permanent solution,”the JI chief said.
It is pertinent to mention here that on December 3, Sirajul Haq submitted an application requesting an inquiry commission’s formation and further requested of makingall the family members and business entities of those names in the Panama leaks a party in the case.
