Imran said corrupt leaders who had put their assets in foreign countries have come together, and were raising hue and cry about ‘political victimisation’ against accountability.

K-P's Ehtisab Commission was formed by the PTI-led government in the province and on July 9, it arrested then Minister for Mines and Minerals Ziaullah Afridi.

He was accused by the commission of misappropriation of funds which caused “losses worth billions of rupees” to the provincial exchequer.
