Pakistan: Petitioner in foreign funding case Akbar S. Babar says report shows Imran Khan's PTI received Rs 2.2bn illegal funding
Islamabad: Petitioner in the foreign funding case Akbar S. Babar has now claimed that a fact-finding report has shown that ruling PM Imran Khan-led Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) has received illegal funding to the tune of Rs 2.20 billion during the period between 2009 and 2013, media reports said on Thursday.
Unveiling the report at a media briefing here on Tuesday, Babar, a founding member of the PTI, said it was just a tip of the iceberg as complete details of the accounts opened in the name of four PTI employees as well as the party’s accounts in and outside the country had not been shared, reports Dawn New.
He told the newspaper that the prohibited funding received by the party would be manifold high if a thorough probe was carried out.
Babar and his legal team recently handed over the report to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).
