The reporter asked whether this vehicle belongs to PTI leader Abdul Aleem Khan.

To which, Sana said his vehicle had been confiscated by the ANF while the vehicle No 2491 has been provided to him by his colleague Malik Nawaz. “If I make any intention of buying this vehicle, I will check its ownership,” he said, adding that the PML-N will clear all misunderstandings with Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
