ISLAMABAD - Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari has responded over arrest of Khawaja brothers.
Zardari on Tuesday condemned the arrest of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) lawmaker Khawaja Saad Rafique and his brother by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB).
The PML-N leader and his brother were arrested after the Lahore High Court (LHC) rejected their request for an extension in their pre-arrest bail in a case pertaining to the Paragon Housing Society scam.
"The arrests of political leaders have been exposing the government's motives," Zardari said in a statement. "No government can be strengthened or last long by putting opponents in jails."
