Malik accuses Sharifs of looting Rs 3.9 billion from banks

ISLAMABAD: Interior Minister Rehman Malik on Thursday said the Sharif brothers had “devoured” a sum of over Rs 3.9 billion of various banks and did not even bother to formally arrange the waiver of the amount.




Talking to media representatives outside the Parliament House, Malik said the nation demands the return of the money from former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Punjab Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif.
He said both brothers also allegedly committed money laundering worth $32 million. He urged the Supreme Court to take suo moto notice of the matter.
Moreover, Malik said that a superintendent of the Islamabad Police has been assigned to investigate the contempt of court allegations against former Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif.
The SP has been tasked to submit the complete report in the Supreme Court, said Malik.
Contempt proceedings against Sharif and others have been pending since the last 10 years, he added.
Earlier also on Wednesday, Malik had urged the apex court to summon Nawaz Sharif and others in storming of the court case as the contempt of court proceedings were still pending against him.

The minister had said that he had further evidence against the Sharifs which he would soon reveal before the media.
