ISLAMABAD: Leader of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Talal Chaudhry Tuesday said the politics of Imran Khan would finish as he failed to provide the money trail for his properties. While PML-N leader Muhammad Hanif Abbasi said that Imran was acting as an agent for countries which were evidently working against stability of Pakistan.

Speaking outside the Supreme Court, Talal Chaudhry said Imran did not give details of Banigala residence and flats owned by him. "We asked for a money trail and Imran only gave a minitrail," he added.

Talal said the last resting place for politics of Imran was Banigala. He said opposition politicians reached Supreme Court every morning in the hope of grabbing power through backdoor. These political orphans were rejected by the people of Pakistan, he added.

He recalled that Imran left the Pakistan cricket team and joined Kerry Packer who was the richest man in the world. Imran took 25,000 pounds from Kerry Packer to play cricket for him, he added. He said next month both cases in Supreme Court would be decided.

The weather was changing in Islamabad and people would see that Nawaz Sharif would be acquitted and politics of Imran would reach an end, he added.

Talal said Nawaz Sharif gave accounts of his three generations and presented himself for accountability without seeking any privileges and exemptions. While, he said Imran did not keep properties and bank accounts in his name.

Imran committed fraud in every project launched by him including the hospital and Namal college, he added.

Imran threatened civil disobedience, attacked national institutions, he said, adding Imran was a declared proclaimed offender from an anti-terrorism court and now was also running away from the Supreme Court.

Meanwhile, PML-N leader Muhammad Hanif Abbasi Tuesday said that Imran Khan was acting as an agent for countries which were evidently working against stability of Pakistan.

Talking to media outside the Supreme Court, he said that Imran Khan was working against the welfare of the people and failed to notice the fact that terrorism had decreased in the country due to efforts of the government. He said Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif did not misdeclare his assets while Mansoor Anwar, Imran's lawyer admitted that they did not have money trail of the property of Banigala and London flats.

He said, Imran took another U-turn on the Banigala land and his associate Arshad Khan told the court that he provided money to the PTI chief for purchase of the land.

He said that Imran could not reconcile an amount of 126,000 pounds missing from his accounts. He said the bank statements provided by Imran were not attested by the banks.

Hanif Abbasi said lawyer of Imran told that all the four banks where he had bank accounts were closed so they could not attest or verify his bank statements.

He told that Imran was now facing disqualification because of the irregularities that came before the court while Nawaz Sharif would be acquitted by the court. — APP
