– Nawaz Sharif should face cases against him: Nasir Hussain Shah –

PPP leader Nasir Hussain Shah said on Tuesday that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif should face cases against him.

Expressing his thoughts, Sanaullah said: “We [PPP] had welcomed Nawaz Sharif on the occasion of his return to the country. Nawaz Sharif had not even said a single word about the elections.”

“It has been said that the PPP will have a tough time in the elections,” he said.

He made it clear that every political party will take part in the elections according to its own manifesto.

Shah said: “PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has talked about the level playing field, not Avenfield.”
