 “Shahrukh Jatoi also got acquitted Just like Nawaz, Shehbaz, Maryam, Zardari Our courts only punish the weak & poor Pakistanis.”

Pakistani actress Mawra Hocane said that rich people in Pakistan are just playing with the justice system.

 “The rich of our country making a mockery of our justice system,one case at a time. We are all unsafe,it’s every one for themselves. No law is protecting us anymore because God forbid we find ourselves in such a situation the only question is,are we POWERFUL ENOUGH?
