Khokhar brothers are PML-N’s ATM, says PM
Islamabad: Prime Minister Imran Khan has termed Khokhar brothers as ATM machines of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
According to details, a meeting of government and party spokespersons was held in Islamabad today in which briefing related to land mafia and senate elections was given to the PM.
Imran Khan directed concerned authorities to take strict action against land mafia in Lahore.
“Our government is completely transparent. We received no foreign funding from any side. Former Premier Nawaz Sharif brought money into politics. He took money from Osama Bin Laden as well. PML-N and other parties are answerable to Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP),” he said.
He further said that Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) is exposing itself by opposing open ballot senate elections.
“PDM’s bubble has popped. They stand exposed in front of public,” he added.
PM further said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) submitted details of 40,000 donors to ECP. “Now other parties should follow suit and submit their records with ECP as well,” he added.
On January 25, the district administration launched an anti-encroachment operation in Lahore and retrieved 38 kanals of state land allegedly illegally occupied by PML-N’s Khokhar brothers for many years.
On the other hand, PML-N leader Saiful Malook said that the structures were being pulled down despite the stay order by Lahore High Court (LHC).
