Will quit politics even if there is minor proof of my involvement: Pakistan PM Shehbaz
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has vehemently rejected the allegation levelled against him by Imran Khan of his involvement in the attack on his long march container, saying that neither he nor the two others being blamed by the PTI chief have anything to do with it.
"I do not have the right to remain [in my position] for even one second if I or others have any role in this conspiracy," the prime minister said, reports DAWN.
"If there is even some minor proof against me, I will leave politics for forever."
