Saudis told Nawaz to honour deal with Musharraf - LahoreEstate - 10-05-2009 05:41 AM
PML-N rejects claim
JEDDAH: The 10-year deal struck by PML-N Quaid Nawaz Sharif with former president Pervez Musharraf with the guarantee of Saudi Arabia is the main hurdle for Nawaz to contest elections, informed sources said on Sunday.
However, a PML-N spokesman categorically rejected the report, saying it was the work of those who had fled the country.
According to sources in Saudi Arabia, Nawaz was told during his meeting with Saudi King Shah Abdullah in Ramazan that if he wanted to keep intact his friendship with the king, he should honour the deal reached with Musharraf.
The sources said that according to the agreement both Nawaz and Shahbaz could neither contest elections nor take part in political activities. Despite this, Shahbaz contested polls, and the Saudi King has reportedly told Nawaz that at least he should honour the deal.
Nawaz and his family signed the agreement on December 2, 2000, the sources added. President Asif Zardari and Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani had also been informed about the reason why Nawaz could not contest elections.
