LAHORE: Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah said on Friday that the Supreme Court had been lenient with absconding former SSP Rao Anwar, yet it had not extended the same relief to former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s family.
Talking to reporters here, the minister said: “Rao Anwar was given relief despite being an absconder...even today the court waited for him to appear before it. In the case of Nawaz Sharif, who has appeared in courts in various cases against him, the court did not accord him relief to go see his ailing wife in London,” he said, adding that Mr Sharif’s only crime had been to make Pakistan invincible.

NS should be ashamed that in all these years in power he did not build a quality hospital where Kalsoom could receive treatment. Kalsoom Nawaz get treated in London while common person has to go to Government Hospital

You, Rana and NS are no different. You are still enjoying the freedom and making these silly comments but in reality you and SS should have been in jail for the Moddle Town tradegy where 14 people lost their lives on your order.
Overall, our laws are not that bad.

This is in a way good comparation.. the law minister is. Accepting that ex. PM and the Ex.SSP. crimes are of equal nature.. meaning both are directly acussed of killing innocent people of Pakistan. Bravo law minister.
