London: Former Pakistan prime minister Mohammad Nawaz Sharif has said that the overall situation in Pakistan is volatile and two parallel governments control the country.
He did not define these two governments but said, "A situation of 'state above state' exists in the country which creates confusion and is not in the interest of the nation and public."
Talking to journalists outside the office of his eldest son Hussain Nawaz in central London on Tuesday, he said that whatever has happened in Karachi is enough to prove what "I had been saying for a long time." "There is no need to seek further proofs and evidence to prove the lawlessness in the country. Enough is enough. I never say a word without facts and figures. Whatever I say, it is based on facts and experience," he said.
"Whatever has had happened and the way Safdar Awan was arrested is not and can't be permissible in a civilised society and they have crushed all civilised norms. Every person who knows and believe in realities and facts would understand that whatever I had been telling in my previous four, five speeches are absolutely correct. No one would be in doubt at all now after this incident", he added.

"They have destroyed democracy and democratic institutions, only God knows what would be the future of the country", Nawaz Sharif commented.
The former prime minister who is now a convicted person and living in London for his medical treatment, went on to say that everyone is clear in his mind after watching the developments that occurred in the last few days and believes that he (Nawaz Sharif) speaks the truth and unveils the facts.
