ISLAMABAD: Federal minister and Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) leader Daniyal Aziz on Friday said that Jahangir Tareen was sacrificed to save Imran Khan and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf.
Aziz’s remarks came after the Supreme Court disqualified PTI Secretary General Jahangir Tareen but ruled in favour of PTI Chairperson Imran Khan in its judgment on the disqualification case against the two party leaders.
Aziz alleged that political engineering is in play as the apex court has said it, Khursheed Shah and Farooq Sattar have said it too.
“If the decision was fair, then Imran Khan and PTI would not be around anymore,” said Aziz. The PML-N leader, further criticising the opposition party, stated that the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has been ordered to probe PTI’s foreign funding for the last five years, while in Nawaz’s case, the probe went back decades. He further asked why millions of dollars received by Imran Khan earlier were hidden. INP
