Replying to a question, Senator Saleem Mandviwalla said that harassment of businessmen in the country should be stopped by NAB.

The Chairman NAB gives lectures on TV for hours. The Prime Minister should appoint the Chairman NAB as the Finance Minister of the country.

“If the NAB chairman is re-appointed as NAB chairman, the country’s economy will come to a standstill. Senator Saleem Mandviwalla stressed that the government is using NAB as a tool against opposition members,” he said.

The NAB files cases against opposition parties leaders only. The NAB wants the opposition parties to remain silent. The NAB also imprisoned opposition leaders so that they would remain silent, but the opposition wont remain silent.
