PTI submits adjournment motion against Murad in Sindh Assembly

KARACHI: Khurrum Sher Zaman, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) lawmaker in the provincial assembly, submitted an adjournment motion against Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah in Sindh Assembly on Monday.

According to details, the submitted adjournment motion demands a discussion on the revelations of a Joint Investigation Team (JIT) report in the money laundering and fake accounts case, during the next session of Sindh Assembly.

The adjournment motion further claimed that CM Sindh Murad Ali Shah misused his authority by intentionally providing illegal assistance to the Omni Group, one of the key suspects in mega money laundering case.

In his media talk, Zaman warned, “We won’t let the assembly session run smoothly if our motion is rejected. Our prime demand is to replace Murad Ali Shah.”

It is pertinent to mention here that the report of the JIT had pointed to the Zardari Group and Omni Group’s involvement in the mega money laundering scam. Following the findings of the JIT report, the federal government on Dec 28 put a travel ban on 172 people, including Asif Ali Zardari, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Faryal Talpur, Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah, former chief minister Qaim Ali Shah and other PPP leaders and businessmen.

Several ministers of the federal government and PTI leader have been demanding resignation from the Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah, after his name surfaced in the JIT report.

Young girl’s tragic story makes her symbol of Yemen war

Buthaina Mansur al-Rimi’s life has changed drastically since last year — orphaned in Sanaa, the little girl controversially ended up in Saudi Arabia for medical care and has just returned to Yemen’s capital. Her entire immediate family was wiped out in an air strike by a Saudi-led coalition that backs Yemen’s government, using an explosive device Amnesty International says was made in the US. Images of Buthaina’s rescue and a picture of her swollen and bruised at a hospital trying to force open one of her eyes with her fingers were beamed worldwide. That international fame saw her become something of a propaganda pawn in the war between Yemen’s Iran-backed Huthi rebels and Saudi media. “I was in my mother’s room with my father, sisters, brother and uncle, the first missile hit, and my father went to get us sugar to get over the shock, but then the second missile hit, and then the third,” she says. “And then the house fell,” adds the little girl, who says she is eight.
