ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) senior leader, Syed Khursheed Shah, on Monday said that they have submitted an application for issuance of production orders of the party’s co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari, ARY News reported.

Earlier in the day, a team of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) arrested the former president Asif Ali Zardari from his residence after the Islamabad High Court (IHC) rejected bail pleas of the former president and his sister Faryal Talpur in a mega money laundering case.

Responding to the development, Shah said that Zardari has produced himself for arrest fearlessly. He claimed that PPP workers will become more powerful after the top leader’s arrest.

Shah said, “We have always made efforts for empowering democracy in the country. We want Pakistan to move forward in an dignified way.”

While commenting over upcoming budget, the politician alleged that the tomorrow’s budget is the IMF’s [International Monetary Fund] budget which would go against aspirations of people.
