Imran Khan ties nuptial knot for the third time ; bride his spiritual advisor
Lahore, Feb 19 (IBNS) : Former cricket captain and Pakistan Threek-i-Insaf chief Imran Khan tied the knot with his spiritual advisor Bushra Maneka at a simple ceremony, in Lahore on Sunday, media reports said.
This is Imran Khan's third marriage.
The reports quoted PTI spokesperson Fawad Chaudhary as having confirmed the development, saying that the ceremony was held at Maneka’s residence.
A PTI leader told the news channels that only close relatives attended the ceremony and Mufti Saeed performed the Nikah in presence of witnesses.
The ceremony was kept a low profile as per the desire of Imran Khan.
Khan’s close associates Awn Chaudhry and Zulfi Bukhari appeared as witnesses, Fawad Chaudhary said.
Bushra Maneka is in her 40s, and belongs to the Wattoo clan.
Earlier, she was married to Khawar Farid Maneka, a senior customs official in Islamabad but parted ways in recent times.
The PTI chief has been married twice before. His first marriage was with Jemima Goldsmith, daughter of a British billionaire in 1995. The couple divorced in 2004.
Khan’s second marriage to Reham Khan broke ten months after a public ceremony had taken place in January 2015.
