Three ‘rats’ looting Pakistan

“These three rats are looting the country for the last 30 years. For the last 30 years, they jointly sucked the blood of the country. They have accumulated millions of dollars worth of property outside the country and have offshore accounts. All this drama is happening for the sake of NRO (National Reconciliation Ordinance).”

‘…I will defeat them’

“Three rats are trying to hunt me down but what they don’t know is that they will be hunted down instead… I will defeat them.”
