ISLAMABAD (92 News) – Federal Minister for Law Barrister Farogh Naseem said that the opposition had rejected the bills regarding Financial Action Task Force (FATF) without reading them. Expressing his views in 92 News Program 'Night Edition' on Wednesday, he said that the opposition had exposed itself by rejecting the bills in the Senate. He said that now the matter would be referred to the joint session of the parliament. "I request the opposition leaders to support the bills in national interest," he added. The minister said that the government's doors are open for the opposition. "The government had allowed Nawaz Sharif to go abroad on humanitarian grounds. Nawaz Sharif should return if he has recovered. Shehbaz Sharif is his guarantor. It will be contempt to court if Nawaz Sharif does not return," he maintained. Barrister Farogh Naseem said that the PPP had come to the power with a great slogan. "Today's PPP is corrupt and prejudiced. Problems in Karachi and Sindh cannot be resolved until implementation of the law. The real cause of Karachi's problems is corruption and prejudice," he said.
