PTI slams £190m case against Imran Khan as political victimisation

 



Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Information Secretary Sheikh Waqas Akram has condemned the £190 million corruption case against former prime minister Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, labelling it the "worst example of political victimisation."  Speaking at a press conference in Peshawar on Monday, Akram warned that the public would not tolerate further injustice against the imprisoned ex-premier. Akram's remarks followed the postponement of the verdict in the case, which had been expected to be delivered today but was rescheduled to January 6 by an Islamabad accountability court. He expressed frustration over the delay, questioning why the verdict had been postponed and what was causing such complications in delivering the judgment. The PTI leader stated that the case was politically motivated, describing it as "political revenge." He criticised the government for using the case to target Khan, who he called the "biggest leader" of Pakistan, and warned that the situation would attract international attention.  He reiterated that the case was based on a "fabricated story" and claimed that it was an attempt to pressure Khan to submit to the government's demands. The £190 million case revolves around allegations of corruption, with accusations that Khan and his wife misappropriated funds related to the Al-Qadir Trust.  Akram defended the PTI founder, stating that Khan was merely a trustee of the trust and that there was no substance to the case. The PTI continues to claim that the charges against their leader are part of a broader campaign of political harassment by the ruling government.
