ISLAMABAD: Minutes after an anti-terrorism court granted bail to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan in four under-trial cases, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader Maryam Nawaz tweeted that the strict criteria of justice is only for Nawaz Sharif and his family.
"No one asks proclaimed offender (Imran Khan) where was he in last two years," she said in a tweet.
Moreover, the Supreme Court reserved today its decision in the PTI chairman's disqualification case.
Responding over a comment issued by the chief justice during the hearing of the disqualification case in which he said the court is in no hurry to give its decision, Maryam sarcastically remarked: “Yes indeed there is no hurry. The only hurry was for Nawaz Sharif case. Because for judgment against Nawaz Sharif, new rules of justice were laid down".
In another tweet, she said: IK's case is far more serious in terms of legal implications than Iqama joke. Nation now waiting to see the decision in his case.”
She also said: "Nawaz Sharif by presenting himself for ruthless accountability knowing it was a farce has forced others to measure up."
