ISLAMABAD (APP) - Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb on Tuesday said that abusing and threatening judges, attacking courts and vandalism at Judicial Complex by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf activists was the manifestation that 'foreign-funded Toshakhana thief' Imran Khan could not face courts to answer allegations.
In a tweet, sharing a screen grab showing PTI workers breaking the door of Islamabad Judicial Complex, she opined that when courts took lenient views against the accused to make him personally appear, such incidents were bound to happen.
Referring to Imran Khan, she said one person was attacking the constitution and the country’s judicial system but no action was being taken against him.
Earlier in a statement, Marriyum Aurangzeb castigated Imran Khan for his lame excuses for not appearing in , saying that the courts continue asking about Imran’s whereabouts but he continued to evade.
She said that the ' foreign agent' was appealing to the banking court for granting bail. In the Toshakhana case, charges are to be framed against him, yet he refused to appear.
She said if Imran Khan fails to appear in courts, he should be arrested so that his desire to fill the jail will also be fulfilled. “If Nawaz Sharif could appear in court with his daughter on daily basis, why Imran Khan could not appear with Bushra and Farah Gogi? Imran Khan should realize that in his difficult time, Bushra Bibi and Farah Gogi left him alone to face court cases.
She said that 'watch thief and foreign agent' should answer why Toshakhana gifts were stolen and sold.
The minister said that Khan should also answer why they used their employees’ private accounts for money laundering. He should also answer why Shaukat Khanum Hospital charity money was invested in the private housing society. “Why did Imran take millions of dollars from the Wootton Cricket Club and why that charity money was invested in politics?”
She asked Imran Khan to tell the nation why foreign funding was used against the country.
