He emphasized that the PTI founder has never backed away from his stance and has cooperated at every legal forum, yet courts are delivering verdicts based purely on accusations without visual proof.<\/p>\n<p>PTI leader also referred to the Supreme Court\u2019s recent directive to resolve 10,000 terrorism-related cases within four months, calling it unrealistic. \u201cEven in four years, it would be difficult to conclude such a high number of cases with so many witnesses involved,\u201d he remarked. Panjhuta added that those supporting democracy are being punished, while those who withdraw are seemingly receiving protection.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Assembly turns into battlefield as lawmakers clash; Achakzai enters, Imran Khan release date\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4KMrKnd-Fmg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>During the same program, PML-N leader Ali Gohar Baloch welcomed the government\u2019s introduction of a digital system but stressed that a full inquiry into overbilling must be conducted and those responsible held accountable. He stated that individuals involved in the May 9 incidents are terrorists regardless of their political affiliations, and if anti-terrorism courts are delivering sentences, it reflects the rule of law. He also called for legal action against those who issue threats to women at public gatherings.<\/p>\n<p>PPP leader Nadir Khan Gabol, participating in the discussion, praised the current finance minister as more capable than previous ones, with a strong understanding of both economics and finance. He said if the Auditor General\u2019s reports contain evidence, thorough investigations should follow. Gabol stressed the importance of reducing the financial burden on the public through petroleum levy savings, especially for motorcyclists and rickshaw drivers.<\/p>\n<p>Nadir Khan Gabol also raised concerns over sugar exports, questioning whether the Prime Minister\u2019s family benefitted from the move. He highlighted a potential conflict of interest, stating that the Cane Commissioner had recommended against the export of sugar, yet permission was granted, which led to increased prices and public hardship. He called the situation a clear example of misgovernance and demanded a full investigation into why exports were allowed despite official warnings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISLAMABAD: Leader of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and legal expert Naeem Panjhuta has criticized the judicial process, stating that verdicts are being passed solely on allegations without CCTV footage or substantial evidence.
