ISLAMABAD: The allegations levelled by former Sindh home minister Zulfiqar Mirza are not of an ordinary nature and cannot be brushed aside, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan said on Monday. A press release issued by his party quoted him as calling for a formal judicial inquiry to ascertain the veracity of the allegations. He also urged the Supreme Court to summon Mirza and Sindh’s Education Minister Pir Mazharul Haq in this regard.
