KARACHI: Day after a shocking incident of beating up a citizen in Karachi, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MPA Imran Ali Shah was accused of torturing his stepmother.
The PTI newly elected lawmaker made it to the headlines once again after his stepmother claimed that Imran and his brother Junaid tortured her and her son in their father’s clinic.
Speaking with media person, Dr Rehana Shah said that she married to Muhammad Ali Shah, father of Imran Shah, in 1989 but his first wife and their children did not accept the marriage.
She alleged that Imran had taken over all properties after the death of Dr Muhammad Ali Shah and had threatened to harm Rehana.
Appealing to PTI chairman Imran Khan to provide her family justice, Dr Rehana said that her son’s life was in danger. “Imran Ali Shah had threatened me and my son and we feel unsafe now that he has became an MPA.”
Dr Rehana also claimed that MQM-P leader Rehan Hashmi helped Imran Ali Shah making false divorce papers to deprive her of legal claim over Dr Muhammad Ali Shah’s properties.
On Tuesday, PTI member of the Sindh Assembly Imran Ali Shah thrashed a citizen in the middle of the road near National Stadium in Karachi.
The video caused angry backlash on social media, after which PTI issued show-cause notice to its MPA, who later apologised the citizen for his inappropriate action.
