“For 3 days I have been wondering have I looted a bank; or money laundered billions in nation s wealth; or ordered a Model Town-like killing spree; or revealed the state secrets to India? I have done none of these but discovered I have committed a bigger crime: wanting to get married,” Imran Khan stated in a message posted on Twitter.

He mentioned that the vicious media campaign led by Nawaz Sharif and Mir Shakeel-ul-Rehman does not bother him. The vicious, gutter media campaign led by NS & MSR mafia does not bother me as respect & humiliation come from Allah Almighty.

Khan said he is only concerned for his children and the very conservative family of Bushra begum, all of whom have been subjected to this malicious campaign. He said this negative campaign has only strengthened his resolve to fight his opponents all the way.

However, my concern is for my children & the very conservative family of Bushra begum, all of whom have been subjected to this malicious campaign by NS & MSR. “NS & MSR can rest assured that their vicious campaign has only strengthened my resolve to fight them all the way,” he tweets.

Khan further said he has known the Sharifs for 40 years and he is aware of all their ‘sordid personal lives’ but he would never stoop to the level of exposing these details. “I have known the Sharifs for 40 years and I know all their sordid personal lives but I would never stoop to the level of exposing these sordid details.”
