Speaking about the alleged graft in this project, the premier raised questions about the NAB’s performance that targeted innocent people but failed to summon those involved in such cases as this. “I wish no one goes to NAB’s akhuwat khana, not even my enemy.
Innocent people were pushed against the wall.
