Fawad Chaudhry demands UK govt deport Altaf Hussain, Nawaz Sharif

ISLAMABAD: Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry has demanded the British government to deport MQM founder Altaf Hussain and former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to Pakistan.

In a tweet on Monday, Fawad Chaudhry wrote that Altaf Hussain and Nawaz Sharif are wanted to Pakistani courts and termed their residence in the UK against fundamental rights.

برطانیہ کی حکومت نواز شریف اور الطاف حسین کو پاکستان کیلے حوالے کرے، یہ ملزمان پاکستان کی عدالتوں کو مطلوب ہیں اور ان کی برطانیہ میں رہائش انصاف کے بنیادی اصولوں کی پامالی ہے۔

The minister had earlier revealed that Asad Umar was removed as finance minister by Tareen, and later Tareen was ousted from the party when Asad Umar regained strength.

Fawad also criticised his own party and said the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf failed to bring change as promised in the country due to its own mistakes.

Fawad Chaudhry also assured that politics is not a game of faint-hearted people and he will remain a minister as long as he has the confidence of the Prime Minister.
