LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Deputy Secretary General Attaullah Tarar Sunday announced that Punjab government will issue a red notice to bring back Farah Khan Gogi, a close friend of Imran Khan’s wife, for her involvement in corruption.
Addressing a press conference, Tarar stated that the government would pursue the issuance of red-warrants to bring back Farah Gogi for alleged corruption. The announcement comes two days after the Punjab Anti-Corruption Establishment registered a case against Farah and her mother and arrested two others for alleged illegal allotment of two industrial plots of 10 acres.
PML-N leader said that ousted PM Imran Khan, his wife Bushra Bibi, and Farah Gogi for looting Pakistan as he called the trio ‘biggest thieves’ of the country. Tarar maintained that an industrial plot of 10 acres was transferred to Farah Khan for a mere sum of Rs80.30 million in Faisalabad’s special economic zone. He added that Farah, her husband, and her mother was booked by the anti-corruption department.
Tarar also targeted Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan by playing an audio clip which allegedly had the conversation of former first lady Bushra Bibi with PTI’s social media head Arsalan Khalid issuing him instructions to brand political opponents as traitors.
Tarar, while calling it an open and shut case, said that the Interior Ministry has already been contacted in relation to the red-warrants. He demanded that Imran Khan call Farhat Shahzadi back to Pakistan if he believed in her innocence. Meanwhile, in a press conference today, PTI’s Shahbaz Gill stated that the audio-tape was being used to drag Bushra Bibi into scandals.
Responding to the allegations of PML-N leaders, Shahbaz Gill said that all the allegations were baseless as the price of the plot was shown to be Rs80 million at the concerned website. Gill also stated that if the PML-N had any proof regarding any illegality in the matter, then the matter should be taken to court.
