Former PM Imran Khan makes a key demand from SC over money laundering cases against Sharif family

ISLAMABAD – PTI Chairman Imran Khan has urged the Supreme Court to take suo moto notice of delay in money laundering case against members of the Sharif family and appoint a “monitoring judge to oversee all mega cases of politicians”.

The former premier in a series of tweets claimed that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif was “trying to interfere in his and his family's money laundering cases by altering record through friendly prosecution”.

“FIA, on behest of crime minister, has taken back challan for supplementary reference for altering it to destroy the case in toto,” Khan alleged.

He said that the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) “brazenly lied” to the top court by informing it that the “special prosecutors were laid off as they remained absent”.

However, he claimed that the special prosecutors were “present on all dates before the FIA court”.
