Yup
It goes the other way around as well, anyone talking against corruption or bad governance or the idiotic policies of PMLN was labeled as a PTI supporter. Lolz!!
That is why my earlier signature hinted at how the political extremism is becoming a maniac bigger than the religions extremism!!
True, but it is also fair to say PTI supporters are also very predictable too, hence people quick to assume.
And just to correct you on this small point. It is not like that in corruption cases. The accused HAVE to prove his/her innocence. What you said about "Innocent until proven Guilty" is for crimes like murder, robbery and theft etc. In corruption cases the accused have to prove himself innocent by showing all the documentation etc. That is how it is all over the world.
'Innocent until proven guilty' is for crime like murder, robbery, theft but not corruption? That would mean anyone can be accused of corruption of whether they did the crime or not. Basically, onus is on them alleged ones to prove their innocent instead of those who have accused should be the one to back with evidence sounds normal to you?
It is like this. I accuse you for corruption and you are gonna have to prove your innocent in the court. Does that sound fair to you considering i am the one who has accused you, therefore onus is on me to prove my accusation against with evidence to back it up. That's how the justice system works.
In other word, what you are suggesting is already being implied. It is called blasphemy law where the system works on 'presume guilty without evidence to back until proven innocent [onus on themselves to back with evidence]'. Most have been jailed under false allegation without evidence, whereas those who accused others weren't even asked to provide the evidence to back with.
In real world If you accuse someone, you better be prepared to back it up with evidence, otherwise you are in jail for making false allegation. But you could argue for the tax accountability from department like IRS.
You are a joker and out to malign the SC.
In CORRUPTION cases, pick up any civilised country laws and onus is on the defendant to prove their source of income. HMRC and anti money laundering laws in UK are exactly the same. If I or anyone can't provide proofs of my income and not paid taxes on those moneys, it is treated as treason in UK and carries a longer jail sentence than murder!!!
For murder case, laws are as you described of 'innocent until proven guilty'. Maybe you should read up on international laws.
What did Al-capone get done for? Not for murders and illegal trading but for tax evasion! They took all his assets and compared to the taxes he had paid, and he got life imprisonment for that.
Get real!
Since you are incapable of understanding the basic process of justice system given your premature notion to subscribe 'presume guilty until proven innocent'.
Let's try your way.
I accuse you for corruption without evidence. Onus is on you to prove your innocent even though i am the one who accused you should back it up with evidence is not asked.
You could argue to tax accountability, but even then, the case is still slim given the process in Pakistan. Let's face it, almost 90% would be in jail including your Imran Khan for tax accountability. It is unrealistic scenario which is something Pakistan as nation is not prepared for.
