Sharif says he won't demand anything from Govt. if judges are reinstated

Lahore, Feb. 25 (ANI): Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif has said that he won't demand anything from the government in the next five years if President Asif Ali Zardari reinstates all sacked judges.

"I don't want to become premier or president, but want reinstatement of all sacked judges according to the signed agreement (Murree Accord)," the Daily Times quoted Sharif, as saying.

Speaking with PML-N leaders from Sindh and Balochistan, the PML-N chief said several committees had been established throughout the country to make next month's lawyers' long march successful.

He also urged the people of Pakistan to come out of their houses to support a free judiciary.

Sharif said the long march was not intended as a "terrorist act".

In a separate meeting with a delegation from the European parliament, Sharif urged them to support Pakistan in the peace process. The 11-member delegation included Labor Member of European Parliament for London, Robert Evans. (ANI)
