Ahsan Iqbal said PTI was trying to malign security institutions to gain personal interests.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Federal Minister for Planning and Development Ahsan Iqbal on Tuesday said Imran Khan had misused foreign funding to run political drive of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
Ahsan Iqbal said that the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) had announced the verdict against the PTI leadership regarding foreign funding case.
He said there had been a report published in Financial Times about foreign funding received by Imran Khan s party. He said that Imran did not file case against the report because of suspicious reasons.
Ahsan Iqbal said PTI was trying to malign security institutions to gain personal interests and made it clear that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif would have the authority under the Constitution to select army chief on merit.
Voicing serious concerns over law and order situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhawa, he said, this is a matter of serious concern over attacks on school van in the areas ruled by PTI regime and it should look into the matter and take measures for maintaining peace in KPK.
