Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) senior leader Fawad Chaudhry on Monday released a video statement seeking details of foreign gifts retained by military generals and judges. Praising the LHC judge for his intervention, Fawad welcomed the record’s release nonetheless. “The Toshakhana list is before us, and we can see how the Nawaz Sharif family and the Zardari family robbed the Toshakhana,” the PTI leader said that the record was “yet another proof” of the corruption of the PTI’spolitical rivals. “They had been attacking Imran Khan and [his wife] Bushra Bibi with advertisements worth billions,” he continued, “turns out they were themselves the guilty party”. “Of these people, if there was anyone who followed the legal path to acquire the gifts, it was Imran Khan,” Fawad maintained.
He also claimed that the PTI chief and his wife had acquired the smallest number of gifts from the repository.
“The true misuse of the Toshakhana was how Nawaz Sharif and Zardari took out cars from there,” he added alleging that the price paid for the luxury vehicles was mere “pennies” compared to their original worth in a “blatant violation” of the rules.
“I also believe that this list is still incomplete”, he continued, “the list starts from 2002 and we should at least see the list since 1988.”
“Furthermore, the gifts received by generals and judges should also be included,” he said, demanding an end to “the idea of the sacred cow”.
He also requested the LHC to form an independent commission to probe into the Toshakhana record and verify whether the gifts were bought and kept legally.
Furthermore, Fawad demanded an apology from his political rivals, particularly the PML-N for spreading “propaganda” against the PTI chief and his wife.
