00:00 So when Nawaz Sharif sir will return, he has legal issues as well.
00:04 Has the legal team given assurance that there will be no arrest,
00:08 there will be a security guard,
00:10 and then he will come and land at the airport,
00:13 and there will be no arrest, no other hurdle,
00:15 and he will be taken straight to Minar-e-Pakistan?
00:18 First of all, with regards to the background of Nawaz Sharif,
00:24 he has never been afraid of going to jail.
00:28 I think the example he has set is the first and last example in the history of Pakistan.
00:33 When he returned with his daughter and went to jail,
00:37 he returned to go to jail,
00:39 despite the fact that his wife,
00:42 her condition, and later we all saw what happened to her,
00:47 he has never been afraid of going to jail, nor is he afraid of going to jail now.
00:52 When we say that we will fulfill all the requirements of the law,
00:56 it means that all the lawyers who will initiate the proceedings under the Pakistani law,
01:03 when they will initiate it, in the next few days or in a week,
01:07 it will be in front of everyone.
01:09 But it is our desire and we understand that he has been treated unjustly before,
01:14 so when he lands in Lahore,
01:17 and will set foot on the land of Pakistan,
01:20 he will be treated as a free person.
01:23 Sir, this is what the caretaker government and the caretaker interior minister said,
01:28 that there will be legal requirements,
01:30 you guys ran on them,
01:32 you didn't like this.
01:35 So what was the difference?
01:36 They also said that if you have to arrest legally, then you will do it,
01:39 so on that Rana Sanaw Allah and your entire community told him to speak according to his level,
01:45 you didn't like that?
01:47 I think Rana Sanaw Allah had also clarified that,
01:52 that the interior minister had clarified that,
01:58 his statement was perhaps a little bit broken.
02:04 I will not go into that, I am just saying that it is obvious that legal requirements have to be fulfilled.
02:09 How can we say that legal requirements have to be fulfilled?
02:11 Are there any assurances regarding going to jail?
02:18 Who will be the assurances?
02:22 When the country will come back,
02:27 when the country will come back,
02:29 there will be no arrest,
02:30 the whole situation,
02:31 Rana Sanaw Allah also talks about this,
02:34 so is there any assurance that there will be no arrests?
02:37 I don't think we talk on the basis of assurance.
02:44 The legal requirements,
02:47 it is obvious that he is a legal expert,
02:49 he has met him many times in London,
02:52 and he knows about the entire cases,
02:55 our legal team,
02:56 they are looking at this,
02:58 in fact they have reached the point that
03:02 which steps they have to take,
03:04 which will ensure that when the new residents come,
03:07 they go directly to the people,
03:09 and there should be no obstacle between them,
03:12 from the legal aspect.
03:15 The rest, whatever legal requirements they have to fulfill,
03:18 they are coming to Pakistan,
03:19 they will fulfill them,
03:20 if there is any other case,
03:21 they will go to that too,
03:23 the court had released them,
03:28 and they have to go back to the court.
03:30 So sir, now that they are coming back,
03:33 can we safely assume that
03:35 all the requirements for PMLN's level playing field
03:38 have been fulfilled?
03:40 It seems so,
03:44 we have travelled a lot,
03:46 and because of that,
03:48 the level playing field is not there,
03:50 and this is not a good thing for Pakistan,
03:53 that you go to an election campaign
03:56 with one party's support,
03:59 and that harms Pakistan,
04:02 the political leader in particular,
04:05 or the people of Pakistan,
04:08 but this is not a good thing,
04:10 this is not a good tradition,
04:11 so hopefully we will get a level playing field,
04:14 now a days the people's party is making noise
04:17 that there is no level playing field.
04:19 Yes,
04:20 so sir, I was going to ask,
04:22 that you have got a level playing field,
04:24 which is a good thing,
04:25 you have done a good politics,
04:26 and solved all the issues,
04:27 and got a level playing field,
04:29 the rest of the people's party is not getting a level playing field,
04:32 is that not a problem in the coming elections?
04:34 People's party, PTI,
04:36 which is a very difficult thing,
04:38 so the PMLN's level playing field is a good thing,
04:40 the rest of the issues,
04:41 will they have an effect on the elections or not?
04:44 I think whoever wants,
04:48 whether it is the people's party or PTI,
04:50 there are forums in Pakistan,
04:52 like the election commission can go,
04:54 the supreme court of Pakistan can go,
04:56 I am sure Justice Faiz Isa will make a principled decision,
04:59 will ensure that no one is harmed,
05:02 if a person who is eligible to fight the elections,
05:05 is stopped,
05:06 then I don't think that,
05:08 this is not ours,
05:09 we don't have to decide,
05:10 Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz,
05:12 or even caretaker government,
05:13 that who should participate and who should not,
05:16 this is the work of the court,
05:18 or the work of the election commission,
05:20 and if they are not satisfied with the election commission's decision,
05:23 in the country.
