All of Imran's facilitators are 'running away': Maryam.

FAISALABAD -- Maryam Nawaz, the senior vice president of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), on Friday said that those who conspired against her father former prime minister Nawaz Sharif were now confessing to their involvement in the conspiracy and exposing others who were also involved in it.

Maryam said that "we don't have to do anything... they are exposing themselves. This is justice from the Almighty that we are seeing this," and added that not only were they confessing, but they were also pointing out others who were part of the conspiracy against Nawaz.

"They hatched [the conspiracy] together but now they are being exposed so everybody is looking after themselves. All of Imran's facilitators are escaping the country," she said while addressing a PML-N workers' convention in Faisalabad.

Maryam said that former prime minister Imran Khan, who was an absconder in some cases at that time, used to participate in the hearings of Justice (retd) Saqib Nisar and Justice (retd) Asif Saeed Khosa but no one bothered to arrest him.

She claimed that the Panama bench was not only an enemy of Nawaz but was also an enemy of the poor people of Pakistan who were being provided with Rs2 bread and cheap sugar.

Maryam lashed out at Imran for "humiliating" the nation in front of the IMF by succumbing to its demands. "Imran is responsible for today's situation. They (Panama bench) imposed an incapable, incompetent and watch thief on this nation. Nation will never forgive them for generations."

She said that the bench imposed a person on this nation who was addicted to drugs and he destroyed the country.

Hitting out at the PTI chief for using party workers, particularly women as "human shields" to prevent arrest, Maryam said that Nawaz Sharif went to jail along with his daughter but he never used his workers as shields whereas Imran is using his female workers for this purpose.

"He checks on his doorstep whether women were protecting him or not at all times," she said.

"What happens to our daughters and sisters is shameful. Their own lawmakers are saying what is happening at Zaman Park, we cannot even say those things in words."
