Deposed Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has stated that Imran Khan and his close coterie are involved in corruption worth (Pakistani) Rs 50 billion and that what has come to light thus far is but a fraction of the true extent of his corruption, media reports said.
London: Deposed Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has stated that Imran Khan and his close coterie are involved in corruption worth (Pakistani) Rs 50 billion and that what has come to light thus far is but a fraction of the true extent of his corruption, media reports said.
The three-time Prime Minister accused
Imran Khan of being part of a conspiracy
to discredit Pakistan and Pakistan’s
political leadership, Samaa TV reported.
“Imran Khan needs to consider, there are
so many allegations against him with
evidence mounting of his alleged
corruption,” Nawaz Sharif said, pointing to
the recent audio leaks and other evidence
surfacing in the Toshakhana Reference.
“There are other cases whose details have
yet to come forward, including the Billion
Tree Tsunami, Al-Qadir Trust and others.
which will rattle the public,” he said, Samaa
TV reported.
Their corruption is worth Rs 50 billion
while the poor here struggle to even get a
salary of Rs 20,000, Nawaz Sharif
lamented. He added that there would be an inquiry into these cases but conceded that these
matters progress at a snail’s pace, with a week’s work taking years to complete.
“But one day, all of this will be clear before the public.
“Imran, who is implicated in corruption from head to toe, has been accusing others of corruption who then have to get certificates of innocence from courts and governments of other countries,” Nawaz Sharif said, adding that there is a need for the public to understand this crucial difference before going forwards. Samaa
TV reported.
“Imran Khan, his party members and
people like Shehzad Akbar should be ashamed at what they have done,” he said with reference to the publication of a “fabricated” story in British tabloid, “The Daily Mail”.
“God has proven them all to be liars.”
Nawaz Sharif said that they had been consistently victimised with cases upon
cases lodged against them which were fought legally, spent time in jail and eventually went into self-exile.
“At one point in time, there was a case of hijacking against me as well, for which there was no evidence.”
