ISLAMABAD (APP): Pakistan Panama Leaks: Lawyer leaders take important decisions
Renowned lawyer Asma Jehangir on Tuesday categorically stated that lawyers bodies will not take to streets on the issue of Panama Leaks.
Speaking in a private news channel program, she said lawyers are not subsidiary of any political party and we have decided neither to protest on Panama issue nor demand resignation from the Prime Minister.
She referred to a resolution of a top lawyers’ body and said, the lawyers community has already decided on this. “We are not stooges of any political party. We take decisions on our own through our general body meeting and the resolution in this regard is very clear.”
She called upon the political parties and the government to focus the upcoming issue like expulsion of Pakistanis from other countries that will cut down Pakistan’s remittances and bringing down the foreign exchange reserves.
