As everyone knows, leader of the opposition and former chief minister of Punjab, Shahbaz Sharif was arrested by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) at its Lahore office in connection with the Rs. 14 billion Ashiana-i-Iqbal Housing Scheme case a few days ago. He was actively being investigated by the National Accountability Bureau and had been called in for questioning several times for corruption in various projects such as the Saaf Pani Scheme and Ashiana Housing Scheme.
His arrest had caused quite a stir amongst the entire Pakistani awaam.

Now his wife, Tehmina Durrani – the writer, famous for her book “My Feudal Lord”, and activist on women’s and children’s rights – has visited him in jail.
She took to Twitter to express her distress on the halaat of her husband Shahbaz Sharif in his cell.
Today, 8 days after my husband Shabaz Sharif was arrested by NAB, I was finally allowed to meet him. I hv returned home appalled. He lives in a dingy 10+10 cell with an exhaust fan, & not a crack in the concrete 4 fresh air or a ray of light! Thr is no concept of day & nite!

Clearly, she is very upset and angry especially because there is no Air conditioning in his cell – which is outrageous indeed because jails are supposed to have AC’s right?
He has 2 repeatedly hit the huge lock on a barred door 4 the jailer 2 hear him & come with keys to take him 3 the public toilet, be it in the middle of the nite.Thr is no AC, & no newspaper but thr r many mosquitos wich hv left many red bites! He is taken 4 a walk in a corridor

Also, the fact that he can’t see the daylight is really pissing her off.
The leader of the opposition has not been allowed 2 meet his lawyers! Despite constantly asking 4 the required documents, NAB has not provided them. He is investigated 4 less than 30 minutes a day! Then he waits for the next 30 minutes & the next day 2 dawn. A dawn he can't see.

People were quick to respond to her series of distressful tweets.
Such people should even b treated worst for looting his nation while holding public office. He along with his corrupt brother has left no stone unturned to lead this country to horrible disaster.

While others didn’t cease to remind her of all the crimes that her husband had committed.
Do you remember those 14 innocent people of Model Town?

Some people trolled her for being so naive and also related to her the harsh realities that most people in Pakistan are facing.
Meet the people in my village who have room of 10×10 for 4 member family with no boundary wall. They use open toilet. Congrats for being CM upto 10 years consistently.

No AC?! 90% of the country’s population don’t have AC’s either!

So now you feel the pain of hundreds of thousands of poor helpless prisoners, or actually, people living in worse conditions in their communities

Some just felt bad for the mosquitos…
Feel sorry for mosquitoes becharoon ki nasal hi khatam ho jaiy gi tumaray miya ka khoon choos k

And well, this guy puts an end to it all.
BB, why ru telling us all this, first of all he shouldn't b in prison. Had we been following Islamic laws, he should've been Hanged publicly the day after his actions resulted in 12 deaths in Model town.U should be rather happy that our crippled state is still looking him after.
— Syed Hassan (@syedakif17) October 13, 2018
Tehmina however, continued to express her extreme sorrow and anger over the conditions of her husband.
My husband & I were not allowed 2 speak alone. Both his jailer & investigator were present. As I did not want 2 comment on an investigation, I waited until I saw it all 1st hand 2 give an accurate update on Shabaz Sharif's living conditions & the NAB investigation. It is a sham!
— Tehmina Durrani (@TehminaDurrani) October 13, 2018
Posing questions to the NAB and the whole establishment for that matter.
If thr is no investigation why is Shabaz Sharif being treated like a condemned criminal? Why is he taken to the NAB court in a dark & airless 'Baktarband' grave-like jeep? Why is he so unprotected while 'IN' NAB custody that he is pushed around & falls?
— Tehmina Durrani (@TehminaDurrani) October 13, 2018
People are outraged at her and well the entire Sharif family. Let us know what you think about this whole matter in the comments below.
