 Federal Minister for Information Pervaiz Rashid on Tuesday said that opposition stepped back from parliamentary committee formed to finalise terms of references (ToRs) for Panama leaks inquiry.

The minister alleged that opposition parties have adopted escapism from parliamentary committee after contacting Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).

He said that report has been prepared about the performance of opposition in Panama Leaks probe case that would be presented before the National Assembly in next session.

Opposition was afraid that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan would also come under the investigation, he added.

He also lashed out at Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) saying the party also feared that Asif Ali Zardari’s Surrey Palace would also face accountability.
