K-P minister Atif denies involvement in land scam

Atif Khan maintains that he has been named unnecessarily in the case

PESHAWAR: Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Senior Minister Atif Khan on Monday denied that he was involved in the Malam Jabba land scandal.

Speaking to the media in Peshawar, he said that he was ready to approach the courts to clear his name, adding that he could not unilaterally end any familial relation he had with anyone, nor could he stop a relative from doing business.

The minister maintained that he had been named unnecessarily in the case, adding that there should be an investigation to determine who was responsible if any wrongdoing had taken place.
