PDM tells PTI
By Muhammad Anis Asim Yasin
ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) leadership Tuesday accused Prime Minister Imran Khan of receiving funding from India and Israel.
While addressing a protest demonstration in front of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) here, Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz demanded Prime Minister Imran Khan to come clean if there were no skeletons in his closet [Daman saaf hay tou talashi do].
“Imran Khan received funding from India and Israel in his own and in the bank accounts of his friends, and through ‘Hundi’ also,” she added.
PDM President Maulana Fazlur Rehman also severely criticised the PTI leadership, and repeated the allegations levelled by the PML-N leader. “Imran Khan is an agent of Jews and he contested elections while using funding from India and Israel,” he claimed. Fazl said he had always told the people of Pakistan that Imran Khan was a Jew agent.
No roadblocks created for protesters
Participants say power show will force ECP to expedite funding case hearing
ISLAMABAD: The government’s decision to allow free movement to protesters in the Red Zone on Tuesday caught the opposition parties unaware.
The peaceful movement of Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) workers on Constitution Avenue and setting up of a stage between the Prime Minister’s Secretariat and the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) reflected political maturity.
Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed had already abolished all police checkposts and the Red Zone was accessible to everyone. The government had allowed opposition parties to hold the protest gathering outside the ECP, therefore did not set up roadblocks on the roads.
