NAUDERO: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif on Saturday vowed to unveil those behind the murder of Benazir Bhutto, DawnNews reported.

Talking to media, after laying floral wreath and offering prayers at the grave of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairperson Benazir Bhutto in Garhi Khuda Bux, Nawaz said that he had finished ‘no-go-area’ of Larkana today and the next to end was in Karachi.

He said government had failed to unveil the culprits behind the murder and vowed to bring the murders of his ‘sister’ to justice once he was in power.

He said no political statements would be issued here, otherwise his opponents would blame him for making political mileage.

“I have not used Sindh card by holding gathering in Larkana as I have only one card that is Pakistani card,” he added.

The party chief also offered condolences with Ahmed Ali Mirani, elder brother of Major Mujahid Ali Mirani, who was killed during November 26 Nato strike in Mohmand agency.

Sharif frowned over Pakistan’s airbases being used to attack its own people in northern areas. He said that he did not trust government-constituted commissions as the commission constituted to probe PNS Mehran base attack had done nothing so far.

Nawaz Sharif further said his party firmly support army’s principled stance of declaring the Nato strike a deliberate act.

To a question whether President Zardari was suffering from political disease or real disease, he said ‘some disease’ and declined to offer more comments.

Earlier speaking at a public gathering in Larkana, the PML-N chief said “Sindh is changing, Pakistan is changing and Larkana is also changing.”

Nawaz also said those who ran away leaving behind the dead body of Benazir Bhutto had now become ministers.

He said he had promised Benazir to work with her for Pakistan’s prosperity but the current government did not implement the Charter of Democracy.

He further said the government had not been able to help the people affected by the floods. “If Sindh can not help the flood victims then Punjab will come to their aid,” he added.

The PML-N chief said his party did not know how to run away after fetching votes and would work for Pakistan’s prosperity.

He said if the PML-N would come into the power it would abolish ‘dakoo-raj’ and would provide employment to the people.
