Sharif brothers blackmailing opponents, says Imran

Islamabad - Imran said, "Instead of clarifying their position and contradictions on offshore accounts and properties, Sharif brothers are using government machinery to blackmail political opponents."

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has alleged that Sharif brothers - Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif - are using government machinery to blackmail political opponents.
In a series of tweets here on Wednesday, Imran said, "Instead of clarifying their position and contradictions on offshore accounts and properties, Sharif brothers are using government machinery to blackmail political opponents."
He said, "PML-N is in the government and if they have evidence of wrongdoing against anyone they should probe and prosecute but not to blackmail opponents."
He alleged that when their (Sharif brothers) wrongdoings are exposed, they target political opponents through innuendos and blackmail.
"Jahangir Khan Tareen has given documentary proof that no loan was written off for him and will be seeking legal action against those hurling false accusations against him," the PTI chief said.
Imran went on to say that to divert attention from Panama Leaks, Sharif government has launched a massive media campaign on "development" at expense of tax payers.
"Sharifs development is always at tax payer's expense and more on media, especially TV ads, than on the ground," he said in the tweet.
