PTI rally: Soomro questions Imran Khan's financial sources
Addressing a press conference in Larkana, Soomro said that the fact that Shaukat Khanam Memorial Hospital was running with charities was understandable, but he said that he had suspicions about Khan’s financial sources.
Soomro said that it was easy to hold rallies but difficult to get votes.
He announced that President Asif Ali Zardari, Pakistan Peoples Party Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani will address a rally in Garhi Khuda Baksh on account of Benazir Bhutto’s death anniversary.
Answering a question about PPP’s estranged member Sardar Assef Ali, he said that he felt bad when Ali left the party because the PPP had given him respect and had made him federal education and foreign minister.

Imran Khan Zindabad
it would be better that IK clarifies how he is managing finances for his political adventures. this would eleminate such uttarances and also strengthen case of PTI.
I think people like him should not speak ,Mr.Soomro and electric bill, on top of this he was threatening the authorities.Clean person can ask.
I think people should listen and try IK as all tested politicians are not the solution of Pakistan.We must stand and find the solution through IK.He should make tough decisions with rules for leaders going to the Parliament..Only declaration of the asset is not enough
.We must insist that people should vote for him. Youngsters must force their parents and relatives to vote for him. Get rid of all thieves ,and learn to stand on your own feet .Green passport must be respected in all world,and we must be responsible.
Its easy to talk the talk but difficult to walk the walk Soomro saab. Khan has been doing as he says he will for years now, unlike anyone from your party.
He is getting the money from ME and millions like me. Does that answer your question?
People saying PTI raises the funds in a legitimate way will go ignored. Supporters will always prop up the person they support. The politicians will keep saying it until they responded by the person in question. It doesn't matter if they're right or wrong. It's just how it works. That's not to say they can't be ignored, though. Personally I'd probably choose the ignoring them choice, myself.
I remember his interview after he was accused of not paying his power bill and got dis connected.
It was some of the foulest language I have seen used by a politican. It set a new low.
Now he accusing the honest of being thieves. 100 percent PPP.
Soomro should investigate that who bought a penthouse at 1 Hyde Park, London,UK in August 2010 under the name of an offshore company for £130 million pounds(175 crore rupees). Let me give you a hint. If you can figure out who was in London,Uk in August 2010 on an unofficial tour during the floods in Pakistan. By the way this address 1 Hyde Park, London is the most expensive appartment complex in the World(Just Google it).
lolz... Expats Pakistanis are the major source of PTI's income. People like somroo, has no support in overseas Pakistanis, so they have no idea that how expats supports a honest, credible and hardworking man like Imran khan!!!
@Ali Zain Kara: Simply impressive. Kudos to you and all the overseas PTI supporters for all the financial support. Your dedication to the cause is certainly respectable and inspiring.
Mr. Somro's statement is not even worth of commenting, but for all educated readers and those who are interested in changing this nation, pls visit PTI's website...all answers are there.
Sometimes, it's a better option to be silent, but these waderey's wont understand.
I am a paid member of pti and i know thousands more here in this country where i live, who contribute 10-250 dollars every month.
Regards
Imran Khan Zindabad. We are with you and will support you till the end. We want CHANGE.
First he pays his own dues, then looks for other people graybaan. He should know there is no place like "Bijlee chor" people like him in the PTI!
Yeh kaun hay? No one even knows this guy...he should be made answerable for his government first, before raising allegations against PTI.
I read an interview on Daily Telegraph I have the opposition on the mat, saying IK in this October that "Whatever they do now will backfire." And after reading comments I am realizing it.
Hahahahahahahahaha see who are talking!!!!!!
IK is questioning your ethics . . . ofcourse you are going to question everything and anything about him. For a change, listen to IK's message. IK and his govt will not get rich while the nation gets poor.
Hilarous! Imran Khans 'financial source' is his honesty and true popularity. He does not need to spend money to buy himself a crowd. He will also prove that real votes come for cheap through real democracy and are not bought. You can rent all the buses to stuff with paid voters you want next election Mr. Soomro, but you will not find any passengers.
PTI rise funds with in the party...IK has given answer many times about the issue..in Lahore jalsa maximum donation was 20lacs by one of the member & it would definately b more in karachi jalsa since people like Swati & Kasuri are part of PTI now..
With rich men like Azam Khan et al on board I don't think financing is an issue. Mr. Soomro should do his research before making such statements as they make him look stupid
Bravo IK
Investigate then. Oh I forgot, hiring on merit is thing of the past.
Imran Khan ki loyalty ko challenge karne waloon ki shakalain tu dekho!!
bitter but true,
