QUETTA: State Minister for Defence Production Abdul Qayum Jatoi Saturday said everyone should have an equal right to corruption.

Replying to a question while talking media on the occasion of his meeting with Talal Akbar Bugti here at Bugti House, the State Minister said everyone including Sindhi, Pashtun, Baloch, Seraiki and Punjabis should get share in corruption.

Earlier, he said that former president Pervez Musharraf, prime minister Mir Zafarullah Jamali, Jam Muhammad Yousuf, Aftab Sherpao among others were all allegedly involved in the murder of Nawab Akbar Bugti. It would be wrong to call these people politicians; they are people of establishment, he added.


He said Mir Zafarullah Jamali, Jam Muhammad Yousuf and Aftab Sherpao snatched people’s rights by supporting a dictator.

To a question, Abdul Qayum Jatoi said: “We provided the Army with uniforms and boots not so that they kill their own fellow countrymen, kill Nawab sahib and Benazir Bhutto.”

“The history is testimony to the fact that we could neither be scared by boots in the past nor are we afraid now or will be in future.”

He said a meeting chaired by the Prime Minister the previous day decided that the state institutions will not transgress their limits.

The State Minister said all should be subjected to accountability. Not just politicians but generals, judges and bureaucrats should also be held accountable, he added.

Referring to Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, he said although the Chief Justice hails from Faisalabad he was appointed on the quota of Balochistan.
