Rawalpindi / Islamabad:
The sister of former Prime Minister Imran Khan, Aleema Khan, has strongly condemned the pre -rate of a journalist by alleged PTI workers, but also accused that “people are sent” in the costume of journalism to discredit it.
Speaking of the media outside the Adiala prison in Rawalpindi after a meeting with Imran, which is incarcerated in the prison center, Aleema said Tuesday that certain elements intentionally provoked and distorted the situation.
“When someone is intentionally sent, it is not journalism,” she added, “it was done on purpose to encourage people.”
A journalist was attacked outside of Adiala prison on Monday after asking Aleema Khan a question about her alleged properties in the United States.
Later, the police recorded a case against Aleema, the legislator of the PTI Tanveer Aslam, the focal point of Bushra Bibi, Naeem Panjutha and 40 unidentified workers for their alleged involvement.
Aleema Khan defended her commercial interests against allegations, challenging criticism to provide evidence. “It is a work as a journalist; if they have evidence, they should make him move forward,” she said, “I say that my property comes from my legitimate and legally earned money.”
Speaking with reference to the launch of an egg during her media speech at Adiala prison, she rejected the allegations that the incident was staged. “If I had an egg thrown on my own orders, then why did the police take these two women to protect them?” She asked.
