Islamabad, Aug 10 (TIWN) Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President and opposition leader Shehbaz Sharif has accused Prime Minister Imran Khan of "selling the future of Kashmir".

Shehbaz Sharif said Khan had "sold the future of Kashmir" and that there was a "nexus between the Pakistani government and the (country's anti-corruption body) National Accountability Bureau".     The Indian government on Monday had scrapped the special status for Jammu and Kashmir, a move that received widespread flak from the Pakistani leadership.  Following New Delhi's decision, Islamabad expelled the Indian envoy, decided to suspend bilateral trade and review bilateral arrangements. 

Referring to the arrest of his niece and PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz and nephew Yousuf Abbas, Shehbaz Sharif said that the atmosphere of harmony and unity created by the opposition in Parliament on Kashmir issue was marred by the government to meet "agenda of political victimization". 

"The opposition created an atmosphere of harmony after Modi's decision to strip occupied Kashmir of its special status. But the government with the arrest of Maryam shredded that unity," he added.
