He blamed the JIT for forcing people to become approver in the case, tapping telephone calls of the Sharif family and leaking the PM’s son’s picture.
Musadik Malik said the cabinet had empowered the JIT with mutual legal assistance which meant the probing team could ask any country to provide any documents.
The power was entrusted upon the JIT to hold investigation freely and fairly, however the JIT did not bother to go to Qatar for further probe.
“We believe that JIT has already made up its mind and they want to frame the PM,” said the special assistant to PM for water and power.
