Panama Papers tip of iceberg, says Imran Khan

Islamabad: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said on Sunday that the Panama Papers leaks raising the subject of Sharif family’s properties in London were just the tip of the iceberg.

Khan was addressing a gathering of supporters in Abbottabad. “The Joint Investigation Team would reveal a lot more,” he said.

The PM has been caught red-handed, said the PTI chairman.

He said it’s a pity that loans are taken by someone else and paid by the nation.

“Nawaz Sharif didn’t keep anything on his name, instead he acquired things under his children’s name,” he said.

Khan in his address paid tribute to the struggle of Kashmiris, who he said have been oppressed by the Indian forces for years.

The event, being held at Abbottabad’s degree college ground, was earlier addressed by senior party leaders from Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and the centre.

PTI is likely to hold its intra-party elections on June 11. A decision to this effect was made during a high-level meeting of the party.

During the meeting PTI Chairman Khan directed PTI Election Commissioner Azam Swati to carry out necessary preparations for the polls.
