LARKANA: Sindh Law Minister Ayaz Soomro on Monday questioned where Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan was getting finances for holding party rallies and for campaigning.

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.

Reel | 12 years ago | Reply It is good that they are asking about Imran Khan's campaign funding. They are falling right into the trap set for them. They are questioning Imran now, they should remember that they will be questioned over funding of their rallies and election campaign. Imran is maintaining all the campaigning funds accounts. The other parties are not as clean. So as Imran says, everything they do will go against them from now on. PPP and PML-N days are over.
