Pervaiz Elahi says 'Rana Sanaullah should undergo mental examination'

LAHORE: Former Punjab Chief Minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) President Pervaiz Elahi adviced the federal government to conduct the mental examination of Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah, ARY News reported on Tuesday.

Pervaiz Elahi said that Rana Sanaullah kept raising slogans of “Maru ya Mar Jao” [kill or die] to challenge Imran Khan. He added that the government should conduct Sanaullah’s mental examination.

He said that the Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) is defaming honourable judges for its own benefit.

He lambasted Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for criticising the honourable judiciary, saying that the premier should remember his past before launching criticism as he had allegedly forced judges to give verdicts in his favour.

The PTI president said that there is no conflict over the judiciary or the people protecting the Constitution, adding that it is usual to disagree on technical issues in any institution. He further added that all judges are equally respectable and protectors of the Constitution.

The former Punjab CM termed the free wheat programme as a ‘stunt’ to make money just like the laptop scheme. He said that Shehbaz Sharif is again whitewashing the national exchequer under the guise of the free wheat ‘stunt’ while deliberately pushing the country towards default.
