PPP leader and daughter of former prime president Asif Zardari, Bakhtawar Bhutto on Saturday took exception to Jahangir Khan Tareen’s UK visit despite him being named in the sugar inquiry report.
Responding to a tweet in which the user stated that Jahangir Tareen has left for the UK after “looting billions” but the National Accountability Bureau was “sleeping”, she said her father was placed on the no-fly list during elections after “a media scandal” broke and has been on it ever since.
“[M]y father a former President was placed on [Exit Control List] ECL during the elections after a media scandal broke & has been on it ever since. My brother [Bilawal Bhutto] was placed on ECL just for making a speech. Also half of Sindh Gov ministers,” she said.
“When it comes to real accountability - This is the other side,” Bakhtawar said.

Seeing media speculating about my trip to the UK.
Nothing to worry about. Since I recovered from my illness in 2014, I have to have regular biannual check ups with my Doctors in the UK.
