PESHAWAR:
Former chief minister (CM) and Awami National Party (ANP) leader Amir Haider Khan Hoti said conflicts between his father, senior politician Azam Khan Hoti and the rest of his family have left them on different sides, Express News reported on Tuesday.
Speaking at the Peshawar Press Club about the conflict, he hinted that they stemmed from his father’s accusations against the leadership of ANP, adding that his “father chose to take a personal matter and make it public.”
Azam Khan had accused Asfandyar Wali Khan and Afrasiab Khattak during a press conference on Monday, saying they made a $35 million deal with the US to ignore the bloodshed in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P).
Amir Haider said that any person making such baseless accusations against Asfandyar is only doing so to further a personal grudge against him.
He added that he warned his father a few months ago that these conflicts will “get to the point that we will no longer be able to walk together,” adding that "this has happened".
On September 29, following his father's statements demanding Asfandyar quit, Haider Hoti had said statements which disgrace the party chief will not be tolerated.
