Imran has become accustomed to blaming others, says Sharjeel Memon

Minister of Information for Sindh Sharjeel Memon on Sunday retaliated to former prime minister Imran Khan’s accusations against the ruling coalition, claiming that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf [PTI] chairman has “become accustomed to blaming others.”

Sharjeel Memon accused Imran Khan of corrupt practices stating that the ousted premier will have to account for “robbing the treasury”.

“Instead of blaming President Asif Ali Zardari, Imran Niazi should state under which law he sold valuable gifts taken from the treasury,” the newly appointed minister added.

Memon also denied Khan’s claim that Farah Khan, a close associate of his wife Bushra Bibi, was innocent. The minister asked the PTI chairman to reveal whose “front woman” Farah was.

"Imran and his family cannot escape by blaming others," the minister said.

Memon criticised the PTI chairman for “manufacturing conspiracies” and spreading “sedition in the country” at a time when the national leadership was in the process of holding “successful talks with Saudi Arabia on the country's development and economy”.

He blamed “Conspiracy Khan” for creating obstacles in the development of the country since 2014. “If they [the PTI] had been kept within the limits at that time, such conditions in the country would not have existed,” he claimed.
