“I was minister railways at that time when Lahore bound train was targeted by Hindu terrorists in India in which several Pakistani and Indian citizens were killed,” he said.
Talking about the release of ex-prime minister Nawaz Sharif on bail, he said that he never listened such decision in the world earlier, however, Chief Justice Asif Saeed Khosa was a professional judge so his decision was based on wisdom.
He said that PPP co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari could return looted money to the country but Nawaz and Shehbaz could die but they would never return the plundered money.
