[Grumbo]

Pakistanis hope that IMF blocks this until free and fair elections are held as soon as possible. A caretaker government that is embroiled in human rights violations should have no rights to negotiate any deals or any funding whatsoever especially when the cabinet is full of convicted criminals out on bail
