Punjab Information Minister Amir Mir Friday rejected the allegations of former chief minister Pervaiz Elahi against caretaker Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi, stating the Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE) arrested Pervaiz Elahi on corruption charges and Mohsin Naqvi had nothing to do with it, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

“Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi has no role in this matter. Pervaiz Elahi should avoid blaming Mohsin Naqvi for his arrest,” Aamir Mir said.

“Imran Khan himself has termed Pervaiz Elahi the biggest dacoit of Punjab. Pervaiz Elahi cannot become a political martyr by levelling false allegations,” he added.

“The caretaker government of Punjab is completely apolitical and neutral. Terming Pervaiz Elahi’s arrest a political revenge is a serious joke. All are equal in the eyes of the law, and Pervaiz Elahi also is not above the law,” he stated.
