Imran Khan's politics based on lies: Saad Rafique
Pakistan
Saad Rafique said that he did not have any interest in the arrest of the PTI chief.
LAHORE (Dunya News) - Federal Minister for Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique on Wednesday said that politics of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan was based on lies.
Talking to the media after appearing before an accountability court, he said that under the draconian National Accountability Ordinance (NAO), a false case was made against him and his brother, Khawaja Salman Rafique, and they were arrested in it. But, today, the truth surfaced, as a key NAB witness told the court about real facts of the case while recording his statement, he added.
He said that two years ago, the Supreme Court had issued a detailed verdict on their bail application and it was also sufficient to prove that they were implicated in a false case. Today, again, the truth emerged victorious in the matter, he added.
To a question, Saad Rafique said that he did not have any interest in the arrest of the PTI chief as he (Saad Rafique) was not a person of such a frame of mind. He said that whoever did anything, he would have to face the law. He said that he had been a victim of revenge for five years.
Khawaja Saad Rafique said, "We were made targets of political victimization", and it started even before Imran Khan came into power, adding that Imran Khan put fuel into the fire and continued to do so till his last day in power.
To another question about cipher, the minister said that the PTI chief attempted to isolate Pakistan at international level for his hunger for power and tried to develop a narrative of conspiracy which was exposed. Its audio recordings had also emerged and he (Imran Khan) could not deny it, he added.
