Sharjeel slams PTI for IMF threat
Pakistan Peoples Party leader Sharjeel Inam Memon said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has again stooped to its nefarious practices of destabilising the country for its lust of power.
PTI has sent a letter to the IMF urging it to link the release of funds to the audit of the electoral process, Sharjeel said, “it is a shameful act.”
The PTI’s demand to freeze the funds for Pakistan means to cause economic misery for the people of the country, he said talking to The Express Tribune.

The recent move by PTI is an eye opener for the people of entire Pakistan, Sharjeel said and elaborated that PTI is trying to torment the entire country to get the power or to undo the elections.
“They (PTI) should put their concerns before Pakistani courts and public, rather than inviting foreign intervention.”
He said that the PTI is demanding of the IMF that an audit should be done first and then the funds for Pakistan should be released, otherwise the funds should not be released.
The purpose of this demand is to push the people of Pakistan towards an economic crisis. In this way the country will default.
