ISLAMABAD: Senator Osman Saifullah has said former president Ghulam Ishaq Khan had no role in distributing money to politicians to form the IJI against PPP.

Osman is the son of PPP KP President Anwar Saifullah Khan and grandson of former president Ghulam Ishaq Khan, according to a statement issued on Monday. He said the court's decision in the case is ample proof that some elements committed foul play against the PPP as well as people's will, adding the verdict had been widely praised.

The decision is a reminder that all citizens of Pakistan are bound to act in accordance with the constitution. The judgement made it clear that people had the right to determine the interest of the country and neither the army nor the Supreme Court could claim this right.

End.
