Dunya News

The paper claimed negotiations on divorce settlement are still ongoing

(Web Desk) – British media outlet DailyMail on Sunday claimed that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan divorced celebrity wife Reham Khan by writing talaq, the Arabic word for divorce, three times in a text message.

The British media outlet’s source claims that despite Reham and Imran’s insistence, the former was kept completely in the dark about the divorce and that she only found out upon landing in Birmingham.

The paper further cited Millionaire businessman Zulfi Bukhari as PTI chief’s close confidant who met Reham at a hotel near Knightsbridge for over three hours to negotiate the divorce settlement, adding that it is still under negotiations.

DailyMail further claimed the reasons for divorce included Reham’s refusal to let Imran Khan’s pet dogs into the bedroom despite his pleas. It says she had redone the Bani Gala palace as per her choice and that her children came and go as they pleased while Imran Khan’s nephews and nieces were made to feel unwelcome.

In first important statement after divorce, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan’s ex-wife Reham Khan on Saturday said she has signed the divorce papers, adding that reports about physical torture are baseless and ridiculous.

In her statement, she said the real reason behind divorce is that their bond had ended and they had decided it with heavy hearts before going to London that they will end their marriage.

Khan said she has signed the divorce papers and that the news reports about physical torture are baseless. She said there’s no substance in reports of trying to poison PTI chief, adding that the reports of taking 5 crore from Aleem Khan and 8 crore from Faisal Wada are also made up.

She reiterated their private issues will not affect their work. Reham Khan had married PTI chief on January 8 this year and the relationship lasted only 10 months when the couple mutually decided to divorce on October 31st.
