ISLAMABAD: Information Minister Chaudhry Fawad Hussain Tuesday said Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) President would be in jail soon if courts start hearing his cases on daily basis.

Briefing the media about the cabinet meeting, he said not verbal but sufficient documentary evidence was available against Shehbaz Sharif and claimed that the PML-N leader was out of jail because courts were not hearing cases against him on daily basis. “If the law is implemented, then Shehbaz will be in Adiala (jail) and not at Mazar-e-Quaid. Why he does not say that the law should be implemented. He thinks 24 hours a day how to get himself included in the government,” he added.

To a question about Shehbaz Sharif’s talk of a national government, Fawad emphasised that the solution to Pak problems was democracy, accepting the majority's opinion and the rule of law to resolve the country’s issues.

The minister said some people, including those in the media, wanted to push him in the government, whereas Maryam is not ready to even include him in the PMLN. How he can be made part of the government. It is his far-fetched idea. Fawad added that Shehbaz and Maulana Fazlur Rehman were not important presently.
