ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Friday announced to hold a key press conference on Saturday during which, he claimed; he would expose collusion of the government of Punjab with bureaucrats.

“Tomorrow I will be doing a press conference exposing the nexus of corruption between Shahbaz Sharif & the protesting bureaucrats who are petrified of what Ahad Cheema, Shahbaz's front man, may expose about the mega scams in Punjab & other bureaucrats complicity also, to save himself,” he said in tweets.

Imran said, “as a political leader I appeared before the SC and produced over fifty documents to prove my innocence since I believe in the Rule of Law and accountability. What are the PAS bureaucrats scared of if they have not indulged in or abetted any corruption”.

“Utterly shameful how bureaucracy belonging to PAS has chosen to protest over accountability & arrest of Cheema, clearly Shahbaz’s front man. This union of the corrupt under leadership of godfather Shahbaz believes they are above the law. If they are innocent why should they fear accountability”, he said.
