LONDON: In response to the alleged leaked audios of PTI Chairman Imran Khan, PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz said Friday that everything related to the former premier was a “conspiracy”.
“It’s shocking that everything related to him is linked with a conspiracy, and that’s the reason I call him fitna (rabble-rouser). His real name should be Sazish Khan,” Maryam — who is currently in London with her father, PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif — said.
Maryam said that while Khan incessantly falsely accused other politicians of being involved in horse-trading and called them evil, he himself kept setting up markets for “buying and selling” lawmakers behind closed doors.
“He even said that those who engage in horse-trading are polytheists. If this is polytheism, then Khan sahab himself is the biggest polytheist alive,” she said.
Maryam claimed that Khan had “always been involved in conspiracies, but his true face was exposed only yesterday.”
“It is no surprise as to who launched him into the political arena to start a campaign against Nawaz Sharif, and everyone knows who was behind PTI’s 2014 sit-ins,” she said.
Continuing her tirade against Khan, Maryam said: “the whole world saw how microphones and cameras were installed in the upper house [during the voting process] and how members were picked up and locked in containers.”
“As I said, Khan had long been involved in hatching conspiracies but his plans could not be foiled until now,” she stated, adding that as soon as Khan lost the support of those who favoured him, he started witnessing a political downfall.
The PML-N leader then said that while Khan always talks about his narrative of fairness, the nation learned the truth today as the audio leaks nullified his narrative.
“His conspiratorial face has been exposed before the whole world today,” she said. “In the audio leaks, he could be heard talking about buying and selling members.”
She said that, on the other hand, Khan could not provide a single piece of evidence related to the horse-trading allegations he hurled at other politicians.
