PRIME Minister Nawaz Sharif has taken a welcome decision to appear before the JIT for questioning. This decision has been taken despite the fact that already his two sons, Hussain Nawaz and Hassan Nawaz, have appeared before the JIT a number of times and been grilled and questioned.
Thisis quite a respectfulgesture on the part of the sitting prime minister.
This belles the quite negative and hostile propaganda by the opposition that the prime minister and his family members have no regard and respect for the superiorjudiciary. Irrespective ofthe outcome, the appearance of the sitting prime minister before the JIT for questioning is going to set a good and welcome tradition in more ways than one.
