In 2012, Dost Khosa had resigned from the position after the Lahore HighCourt had charged him in the case related to the kidnapping and killing ofactress Sapna Khan.
Actress Sapna was the former wife of Dost Khosa and daughter of Missal Khanwho had accused the former Punjab chief minister of kidnapping and killingSapna while Khosa levelled the same allegation at his former wife’s family.
Taking notice of Chaudhry’s remarks, Zulfiqar Khosa clarified that he alongwith his son joined the PTI, adding, “Fawad Chaudhry is nothing for me”.
He went on to say, “I have joined the PTI not the Fawad,” adding that ImranKhan and Shah Mehmood Qureshi had not raised any objection.
Chaudhry, in response to the criticism, said that deciding policy is amatter liable to the party, not the Zulfiqar Khosa.
