‘In what capacity did Shehbaz take his son to a state dinner?’ Twitterati question Suleman Shehbaz’s presence in Turkey

Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif’s son Suleman Shehbaz has been in the limelight ever since his picture with President Tayyip Erdogan and the first lady from his father’s recent trip surfaced on the internet.

Suleman Shehbaz, who has been accused of money laundering and assets beyond means, was present in Turkey, along with his father Shehbaz. His wife shared the picture of their dinner on Twitter which was heavily slammed by netizens.

What a spectacular evening hosted by the honourable President @RTErdogan. It is always a pleasure to meet him and the first Lady. They always fill your heart with so much love and warmth. Thankyou wont be enough ❤️@CMShehbaz @SulemanSharif82 pic.twitter.com/duBPg0Rng4

He took his son with him on an official Pakistani visit. He want to get some business contacts for him and for his family business? What for Pakistan?https://t.co/w7RlIrSytj

This is gross. In what capacity @CMShehbaz took his son to a state dinner. There are clear court orders against his son. Shame on being this cruel. You treat Pakistan as your personal estate. @MaryamNSharif @betterpakistan @PTIofficial @Marriyum_A https://t.co/RfUl7ckoOP

Shehbaz’s three-day visit to Turkey too gathered criticism and was deemed that the duration and timing of the trip is rather unnecessary.

The government before leaving gave ads of the trip to various newspapers. Twitterati questioned whether it was necessary to give ads
