Maryam maligning judiciary through fake audio: Gill

ISLAMABAD: Adviser to Prime Minister on Political Communications Shahbaz Gill on Wednesday said Maryam Nawaz is levelling baseless allegations against the judiciary through a fake audio.Talking to media persons at the Prime Minister’s House, he said Maryam is a certified liar who submitted fake documents in court. He said Calibri Queen Maryam Nawaz always tells lies. The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) is engaged in a propaganda campaign against the judiciary in an attempt to make its role controversial.

With reference to an audio clip circulating on the social media allegedly claiming that the former chief justice of Pakistan (CJP) Saqib Nisar gave orders on someone’s directions to keep Nawaz Sharif and Maryam Nawaz behind the bars, Gill said a private channel has telecast the real video of Saqib Nisar, which proves that the audio clip is fabricated. There is no doubt that the former Gilgit-Baltistan chief judge took several benefits from the Sharif family in the past.

He said Maryam does not have ethics to talk about the judges. By mentioning some groups in the judiciary, Maryam always tried to defame senior judges of the apex court. He said Maryam talked about banning advertisements of some TV channels. PMLN leaders always tried to defame those judges who punished them for corruption. He said Maryam also tried to defame the Pakistan Army by levelling fake allegations against the top slots. The PMLN, in the past, abused Benazir Bhutto Shaheed by levelling baseless allegations against her. It is an old bad habit of the Sharif family to lie about the institutions, he said, adding: “If you criticize five judges of the court, surely you are attacking the entire institution.”
