Summary PML-N leader Ch Nisar Ali Khan says his party itself calls for probe into assets of all.
Hitting back at Imran Khan for leading a call in the media under the motto of asset declaration, Ch Nisar Ali Khan, the opposition leader in the National Assembly, said that Imran has a 300-kanal mansion. He said Imran just told the price of one kanal, without telling the public that his mansion is sprawling over 300 kanals. According to Nisar, Imran said that he got the land after selling his flat in London. He said the year was that of Imran separating with his wife, then how come Imran can say that he got gifts the same time he was splitting with wife.Imran Khan had said in his news conference that PML-N likes to indulge in personal lives and matters, whereas the PTI has a national agenda and a national call for asset declaration.Ch Nisar said that Imran didn’t declare in the asset forms he filed with the Election Commission that he got the land after selling the flat in London. Nisar all along tried to dispel the impression that he or his party was indulging in media trial. He complained that Imran doesn’t take an aim at the leaders of a part who have assets in Swiss accounts. Imran instead loves to take a needless swipe at Nawaz Sharif and his party, he added.Nisar said that the PML-N wants that assets of all public office-holders, including MNAs, MPAs, ministers, bureaucrats, army officers and judges, be carried out through a Supreme Court or High court tribunal led by a serving SC judge.He claimed that Imran has not presented all his assets in front of the public through the media. He also alleged that Imran didnt pay tax from 1999 to 2002. He said Nawaz Sharif paid Rs 2.5 million in taxes.Ch Nisar said there should be a judicial inquiry into all the cases relating to political role of ISI. He said President Zardari is playing a new game by announcing address to joint parliament without taking the opposition into confidence.
