Is a forward bloc thriving in PML-N, waiting for Panama JIT decision

LAHORE: Awami Muslim League Chairman Sheikh Rashid Ahmed has claimed about a big forward bloc in the ruling party PML-N which is just waiting for the Panama Papers case decision from JIT and Supreme Court of Pakistan.

Sheikh Rashid has claimed that a faction of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) is to switch sides in the near future, quitting its allegiance to the ruling party.

The AML chief visited Jinnah Hospital in the provincial capital and inquired on health of Ahmadpur Sharqia incident’s victims.

While talking to the media before leaving, Rashid said that he would decide on merging AML with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) after Joint Investigation Team (JIT) gives a verdict in Panamagate investigations.

Rashid said that the premier has now to decide whether he wishes to serve jail time over prolonging the issue or call for elections before due time.
