ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman, Imran Khan claimed that Ayesha Gulalai has been used and bought by the Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) on Thursday.
“PML-N has used her and bought her. This is tried and tested method of PML-N,” said Imran in an interview with a private TV channel. PTI chairman added that he thought Gulalai had potential and was disappointed that she had stooped to “such a level”.
“I have worked with numerous women in my career, whether it’s in my party, in England and in the charity hospital I established. How many women have leveled such allegations against me?” questioned the PTI chairman.
Imran said that he had expected the PML-N to “stoop to this level as they have tried everything”. He further added that PTI is the party which has brought women to the forefront of politics in Pakistan.
“I have told everyone in the party that anyone who does not respect women in our party, I will take action against them personally,” said the PTI chief. “I was married for 11 years and was a bachelor otherwise. How come no one has come forward with such allegations before?”
Imran also said he has refrained his party leaders and supporters from targeting Gulalai’s sister.
