Saudi Royal family wants to see Sharifs in power
According to the recently issued Wikileaks’ reports it is a common notion in Pakistan that the Saudi Royal family wants to the Sharif family to be in power and that is why Saudi Arabia is hesitating to help the PPP government. On the other hand Saudi government expressed its disappointment over Nawaz Sharif’s return to Pakistan from London and asked Musharraf to deport him again to Saudi Arabia.
According to the report, a diplomat in the Pakistani embassy in Riaz was of the view that a girl from the Sharif family has been married to a grand son of Shah Fahad bin Abdul Aziz aand therefore Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif has become a part of the royal family. The reports have also revealed that the Saudi government was directly involved in the pardon agreement of Mina Muahammad Nawaz Sharif and that Mian Muahmad Nawaz Sharif violated the agreement by participating in active politics.
Saudi envoy to the USA Adil Zubairi also disclosed the facts that the Saudi government allowed Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif to go to London on the condition that he would not go back to Pakistan but he ( Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif ) violated the terms of agreement. The Saudi government asked Musharraf to deport Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif back to Saudi Arabia where he would be given all the due respect but his status would be like that of a house-arrest personality. Adil Zubairi also said that at that time there was no alternative of Musharraf while Benazir Bhutto and Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif did not have the capability to fight the menace of terrorism and therefore Saudi government was compelled to support Musharraf otherwise Pakistan would be destabilized that could give Osama Bin Laden to have an access to the nuclear assets of Pakistan.
