ISLAMABAD: Hitting back at PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Federal Minister for Communications and Postal Services Murad Saeed has said that the 18th amendment does not mean that all funds would be deposited into fake accounts of his father.
Addressing a press conference in Islamabad, Murad Saeed said that the whole country is facing flood situation and the recent rains have badly damaged infrastructure in Karachi.
He said Bilawal talked over corruption cases of his father today and added that opposition is politicising every matter.
