Sialkot: Defence Minister Khawaja Asif while addressing the PML-N workers’ convention in Sialkot on Sunday said that former chief of army staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa was PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s benefactor and now he abuses him.
Khawaja Asif said that Imran did not suddenly descend on Pakistan, he was launched after 2011 through planning. “A campaign was launched against us on television. “Under the plan a person was brought to power who destroyed the economy.
“We tried our best to prevent national destruction, but the planners succeeded in transferring power, when nations follow the slogans of fakes and frauds, destruction happens,” he remarked.
Imran Khan used to say that justice is served in British courts. Today he is saying that justice should be done to him. Under his rule the government twice sent Shahbaz Sharif to jail and was preparing to send him for the third time. We never targeted women politicians.
Asif said that a newspaper apologized for making a false statement against Shahbaz Sharif in a foreign court.
Asif said, in prison he got only two blankets during the severe cold season. His wife used to sit in anti-corruption all day. Our leader’s daughter was arrested.” Rana Sanaullah was falsely accused of drug possession and acquitted by the court, he added.
Asif said that Imran is the “biggest thief”, and he has spent his life in free trade. “‘Murshid’ was selling things through Zulfi Bukhari. Six billion jewels were bought for Rs15 million, and yet you say Imran Khan is honest? “People kiss the Holy Kaaba, but he sold a watch with a picture of the Holy Kaaba for tens of millions,” he remarked.
The minister said that Imran should respond to the conversation between “Murshid” and Zulfi Bukhari. The minister recalled former premier’s statements, ‘I made a mistake by giving an extension to General Bajwa’, ‘I made a mistake by going to Russia’. And razzed the PTI chief saying, “in the future he will say ‘I made a mistake by marrying Murshid. ”
He further said that now all institutions of the country will serve it within their constitutional limits. He added that the people have the authority to hand over the power of the country. “He used to say that ‘I will break the assemblies’, I said not to trust Pervaiz Elahi, and now he will say that ‘it was my mistake to appoint Pervaiz Elahi’,” he added.
