Last Updated On 04 September,2011
Pakistan files of WikiLeaks reveals that PML-N had made a plan for going into midterm elections.
Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif had talked with US diplomats about a plan of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) of toppling the Pakistan Peoples Party government.
Former US Ambassador in Islamabad, Anne Patterson dispatched a cable back to the US Secretary on October 5, 2009, reporting a meeting of Shahbaz Sharif with US diplomats on October 2, 2009 in which he told them how his party was paving the way for midterm elections. The Punjab CM told them that owing to the bad governance and rampant corruption by the PPP, the very existence of the democratic system was in grave danger.
He said that by highlighting the corruption by President Zardari and his cronies, and through use of court verdicts on the NRO cases they would motor a no confidence move against the government, seeking midterm elections.

Nawaz surmises Mumbai attackers accent as Pakistani: WikiLeaks
Last Updated On 04 September,2011
Pakistan files of WikiLeaks reveal the detail of PML-N chiefs meeting with a US delegation.
The cable, sent by Acting Principal Officer Clinton Taylor of the US Consulate in Lahore on Dec 9, 2008, describes, how the Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) chief told a visiting delegation of US senators John McCain and Lindsay Graham that he had listened to the phone call made by one of the attackers to an Indian TV channel, and even though the individual claimed he was Indian, he had heard a Pakistani accent.
Although Nawaz later refused claims that the terrorists were from Pakistan, he showed no signs of being in doubt about their Pakistani origin at the December 6 meeting, a news reports.
The people involved (in 26/11 Mumbai attacks) were from this country - I am convinced, Nawaz Sharif is quoted as saying.
We must take strictest action against those elements, he declared, adding that once India produces concrete evidence, we should proceed whole hog.
Nawaz was perhaps trying to stay in the good books of the United States, and in doing so, securing his prospects as a future leader of the country, the paper said.
Further cementing his image as a secular and fair politician, the PML-N chief also told the senators that his party had acted responsibly with the ruling Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) to fight terrorism.
