Leader of PPP Dr Nafisa Shah has said that the party will not ignore Railways Minister Sheikh Rasheed’s threat to party Chairman, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari.
In a statement issued here on Sunday, she said Sheikh Rasheed has been a facilitator of terrorist organizations in the past that is why his statements cannot be ignored as mere mockery. “Our struggle and patience should not be seen as a weakness”, she added.
She said that the PPP activists will protect their Chairman at all costs. On one hand, the reference by President Zardari regarding judicial murder of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto is pending and on the other the killers of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto have been released, she stated.
The PPP leader said the concocted case of money-laundering against Zardari has been transferred to Rawalpindi and now the threat by Sheikh Rasheed to Bilawal are all indicating there are links between all of them.
Dr Nafisa Shah said the Railways Minister is spokesperson to several quarters including terrorists and that is why PPP is taking this threat very seriously. The nation will not tolerate such criminal acts, she concluded.
