Bilawal says ECP’s report in foreign funding case exposed ‘ugly face of corrupt’

F.P. Report

LAHORE: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said on Wednesday that the report of Election Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) scrutiny committee on the funds received by ruling Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) from foreign sources had laid bare what he called the ‘ugly face of corrupt’ Prime Minister Imran Khan.

In a statement issued in Lahore, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that the ‘selected’ prime minister had concealed the bank accounts of his party from the ECP despite taking oath he had concealed none.

The PPP chairman said it was unfortunate that the very man who lectured people on corruption and taunted his political opponents for being corrupt had himself devoured billions of rupees he received from foreign sources.

“Truth of the matter is that he has looted the country by disguising himself as a crusader against corruption, the proof of which is poor economy of the country,” he alleged. 

Bilawal claimed that Imran Khan was imposed on the nation by projecting him as an honest person. “But now it is the time to hold him accountable,” he concluded.
