Zulfi Bukhari tells if he funds Imran Khan

Says I do as much for Khan and his party as I can

Islamabad (Pakistan Point News – 15th June, 2018) Renowned anchor Kamran Shahid interviewed Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Imran Khan's close friend Zulfi Bukhari in his tv show.

The anchor said to Bukhari that you have clarified that the chartered plane Khan used to travel to Saudi Arabia for Umrah was not yours. However, there are reports that you financially assist Khan besides Jahangir Tareen. Is this true?

To this, Bukhari responded that this is wrong. “Nobody gets as much funding from abroad as Imran Khan. I do as much as I can for Khan and his party, now it can be called a political fund or a donation. Jahangir Tareen also does as much as he can in his position,” he said.

Bukhari said that he supports Khan’s ideology and objective. I don’t know what’s wrong in that?

“If we stay with everyone and fund them, it is fine but if I have decided that I will follow only one person, this is wrong. Why is it so?” Bukhari added.

Zulfi Bukhari was not allowed to travel to Saudi Arabia on Monday as he accompanied Khan and his wife for Umrah.

According to Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) sources, Bukhari was set to fly to Saudi Arabia from Rawalpindi via a charter flight along with Khan and his wife when he was asked to disembark as his name is placed on the Exit Control List.

However, Khan managed to take Bukhari along with him for Umrah after a phone call, following which Bukhari’s name was removed from the blacklist. Since then, Khan is being criticized for this act.
