Earlier, Federal Minister for Petroleum Musadik Malik called for dialogue to address national issues, stressing the need for constructive discussions while maintaining a clear distinction between criminal cases and political matters.
Speaking to the media at a local hotel here on Sunday, he said, “We were ready for negotiations before. If we want to move forward, let’s have a dialogue. How come issues will be resolved if our people do not sit together?”
He welcomed initiation of talks with PTI, describing it as a positive step. However, he clarified that the agenda of dialogue would not include criminal cases involving PTI’s leadership.
Referring to the allegations against the PTI founder, Malik said, “The cases against him are criminal in nature. The £190 million matter is beyond politics.” He said that according to the prosecution, the state resources were misappropriated, and 400-kanal land was taken in the guise of a trust.
