Tax evasion charges against Imran Khan

After the charges laid by Khawaja Asif on Imran Khan of “gambling away” millions of rupees donated to Shaukat Khanum hospital, opposition leader Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan has also accused the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf Chairman of tax evasion during a press conference today in Islamabad. Nisar claimed Imran Khan had not paid his tax returns, not declared his foreign earnings, hidden his assets and had not been truthful about the purchase of his residence. Nisar challenged Imran Khan to take him to court over these allegations otherwise he would make details of Imran’s taxes public. The opposition leader added that Imran Khan was the only politician who criticized the opposition more than the government. “The target of Imran Khan’s criticism is Nawaz Sharif and the PML-N.” Nisar suggested that both the PML-N and PTI should approach the Chief Justice of Pakistan or the Chief Justices of provincial high courts and request them to form a commission or judicial tribunal where both parties could submit evidence against each other. He compared Imran Khan to Interior Minister Rehman Malik, challenging them both to approach British courts if they had any concerns regarding the business dealings of Nawaz Sharif’s son Hasan Nawaz
