LAHORE – After the leaked content of Reham Khan’s all-tell biography sentshock waves across Pakistan for more than a month before the unveiling ofthe piece, the ex-wife of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khanhas finally released her book online.
The scandal-filled book, which is available on Amazon, an electroniccommerce company, hit the shelves with more shocking stories thananticipated, especially in the chapters dedicated to her ten-month longmarriage with Imran Khan, who has the strong chances of becoming primeminister after July 25 elections.
The 45-year-old journalist and former BBC World weather-forecasting anchorclaimed that the cricketer-turned-politician had been showing interest inpre-marriage meetings intended at conducting interviews as he usually askedabout her age and admired her.
Sharing her experience of one of her meeting with the PTI chief at BaniGala before marriage, she stated that she was attacked by huge mosquitoesand scratching her feed when he emerged from the bedroom. She added, “Henow had a glint in the eyes as he looked straight into mine. Flustered byhis penetrating gaze, I looked away and explained that I was covered inmosquito bites. The next thing I knew, his huge hands had grabbed my anklesprotectively but gently, as if to sooth the insect bites. I jumped in mychair at this unexpected, yet tender gesture from him. He leant forward asif to kiss miss, then groaned and got to his feet”.
He took her to the garden and said, ” I want to marry you,” Rehamexplained, adding that she responded as “Are you totally insane?”.
Besides describing the whole story from Khan’s flirt and kissing attemptsto dispute over a dancing video, she at one place revealed that the cricketcelebrity touched her knee seeking forgiveness for taking her wrong.
Girls Abortion in London
Reham, in the book, claimed that women are exploited within the PTI. Shealleged that a close friend of the PTI chief had to make a girl to undergoan abortion. When Imran Khan was accused of it, he rejected the allegationsin public.
The former BBC journalist further wrote, “Months later, however, I wasbeing told by Imran Khan himself that it had actually happened”.
Khan’s Interest in Men
Revealing the PTI chief’s attraction towards the same gender, she added,“Money and good-looking med appeared to be the two things that impressedhim the month. He raved about the past beauty of people like PervezKhattak, Zakir Khan and Murad Saeed. The way Imran spoke fondly of SaqlainMushtaq, the Pakistani spinner known for his cute boyish smile, disturbedme. His admiration for the rather macho Minister from DIK, Amin Gandapur,and his undying love for the youngest MNA from PTI, Murad Saeed, was evenmore shocking”.
Transgender Provided ‘Services’ to Great Khan
She also revealed the story of a transgender person’s link with Imran Khan.She wrote, “… a rather excited female journalist would one day try veryhard to reach me. I was busy in a meeting at the time but eventuallymanaged to squeeze a few minutes out for the urgent information that shehad to share. This rather journalist told me that the film actress Reshamhad just called her and told her how the new transgender dancer Rimalprovided services to the great Khan. My lack of surprise shocked thejournalist relaying the story”.
Homosexuality
She claimed that the PTI chief had also been involved in homosexual. Rehamwrote, “He [Imran Khan] spole of a time when a boy signaled to him tofollow him into the garden of the school property and performed a sexualact on him. Later, in Worcestershire, while he was doing his A. Levels, hedescribed an incident in the showers where a 12-year-old boy came andforced himself on an 18-year-old Imran”.
Khan Subjected to Nudity by Maids and Cousins
Sharing another story, which she claimed that it has been described by thePTI chairman himself, the second wife of Imran stated, “…it was clear he[Imran] had been subjected to nudity by older maids and cousins. Imranjoked about a maid who would forcefully nurse him when he was about 4-5years old. It became such a habit that Imran once grabbed her breasts infront of his mother, much to her horror. He told me how an older femalecousin would force him to touch her when he was not even ten.
The leaked excerpts of the book already sparked debate on mainstream mediain June this year. The revealations include as follow;
TV Anchors and Underhand PrivilegesBesides censuring Imran Khan, Reham Khan did not spare her fellowjournalists and a special portion of the leaked book is dedicated to themurky wheeling and dealing of the TV anchors with a special referencetowards the role of ISI.
Reham shares that her mother and sister had made homes in Bahria Town,saying she had a vague idea that Malik Riaz was rich influential and thateveryone from the anchors to the politicians lived off his handouts.
She contends that she either successfully avoided all offers to doagenda-driven content or was not considered ideal for such tasks.
The former journalist shared that she never received any offer of ‘lifafa’during her stint as a journalist but claimed that the media wing of the ISImade brief contact but she showed a clear disinterest.
Reham also boasts that she was possibly the only anchorand politically-linked individual in Pakistan who never met or spoke toMalik Riaz either, which remains true to this day.
JKT AnchorsReham Khan shared that like many others, anchors also considered her inJahangir Tareen’s camp.
“Since Jahangir was happy to pour money into the media, with anchorsregularly coming in and out of his F6 home, he had perhaps created thismyth himself,” penned the former BBC presenter.
Who Slept With a TV AnchorReham Khan’s book has become controversial even before the release as shehas made blunt remarks in the book.
One such incident relates to a TV anchor, Reham did not mention, who took adifferent line than PTI’s one but after having spent a night with anoperative and having being captured in a compromising video, changed hisstance.
Though Imran’s former wife has not provided the name of the anchor butadded that he was a sensible and highest ranking presenter.
She explained that during her stay at Banigala, journalists, channel ownersand TRP manipulators sat in Imran’s home, guiding him and taking guidancefrom him.
“His private ATM’s paying their salaries. It was an open secret,” allegedReham Khan and added that the other parties did not have as much financingas PTI.
She elaborated that ‘comedians’ apologised to her in person and explainedthat they were given ultimatums if they dared to go against policy.
Imran’s Uneasiness With Reham-Kashif Abbasi InteractionAfter having fired a broadside at the fraternity of media presenters, RehamKhan somewhat lavished praise on ARY News anchor, Kashif Abbasi, for not tohave been convinced by Imran Khan’s political acumen.
“Kashif Abbasi seemed unimpressed by the Leader and appeared asexasperated as me with the lack of knowledge and political acumen ondisplay,” wrote Reham in the book.
She continued that once Kashif Abbasi whispered that he was not prepared tobe ruled by a daft leader to which she nodded and caught sight of Imrantaking interest in the interaction.
“As soon as I caught his eye, he averted his gaze,” states Reham Khan inthe much-awaited book.
Imran’s Explicit Conversation With Female AnchorsApart from the top brass of male anchors, Reham Khan also shared herobservation regarding the female anchors in the industry, alleging them ofhaving received explicit content from Imran Khan.
Imran’s penchant for sexting was apparently well known in Lahori circles.Most female anchors had excitedly reported receiving images of hisgenitalia, wrote Reham Khan.
She shared that when her film producer disclosed this, Reham dismissed itas a vicious rumour, wondering ‘why someone of his stature would take arisk like that’.
Zionism And Imran KhanReham Khan has visibly weighed in on the discussion whether Imran Khan isan operative of the Yahoodi lobby or zionists who want him to steer thecountry, throwing weight behind the assertions.
Reham shares that Imran Khan was close to Kate Rothschild as she wasdevastated when the rapper she fell in love with, converted to Islam andrefused to continue the affair with her.
The former journalist then shares that since the Rothschilds were known forbeing active Zionists, it might be the surname that caused conflict inKate’s relationship as one of their ancestors, Walter Rothschild, wasresponsible for drafting the declaration for a Jewish homeland in Palestinein 1917, which came to be known as the Balfour declaration.
Reham also found it strange that Imran censured the Americans, whilesharing close ties with those who had a clear interest inIsrael.
“Imran was also very close to his brother-in-laws, particularly Zac. Imranmaintained that in a violent argument once where Imran slapped Jemima, itwas Zac who asked Imran not to divorce his sister,” states Reham.
According to Reham, Imran had impressed upon her that it was not hisex-wife but her family he was good friends with.
Reham alleges that Imran’s father-in-law was a tycoon who also designedImran’s future.
Reham elaborates that a few days before the divorce, someone told her astory of a sensitive meeting and soon after the divorce, she requested aninteraction with the religious scholar at the centre of the story.
According to Reham, that scholar was told by a former foreign ministerabout a 1990s meeting which was also confirmed by powerful former DG ISIs.
“He confirmed to me that the story I had stumbled onto about Imran’sconnections with the Americans was indeed true,” claims Reham.
She continues that back in 1996, a meeting between the late foreignminister Sahibzada Yaqub Khan and Henry Kissinger had a third party in it –Sir James Goldsmith.
As per Reham’s observations, the Pakistani foreign minister wascategorically told by Kissinger “Look after our boy” in a reference to“Imran Khan”.
Reham shares that she had started reading up about James Goldsmith duringer marriage, and stumbled on an article by David Goldman in which he wrote:“Sir Goldsmith created an elaborate network of puppets in Britain and theUS to create an elaborate cash laundering network in the United Statesbetween 1981 and 1983”.
Reham continued that reportedly the fictional character of corporate raiderSir Larry Wildman in the American film Wall Street was based on JamesGoldsmith.
“The EIR staff investigation also raised questions concerning thefinances of the political network broadly associated with KissingerAssociates Inc,” states Reham.
Reham quotes EIR report and argues that Gen Vernon Waltersof the state department and the chief protégé of Henry Kissinger was, for along time, employed by Goldsmith.
She also shares that Imran Khan hated Jemima’s phone calls, and cursed herafter each one, but could not avoid that as it was a ‘stronger hold’,contending that it made complete sense after realising that James Goldsmithhad always been politically active, and had even founded his own party inthe 90’s called the Referendum party.
“It was a single issue Eurosceptic party which laid the foundations ofBrexit. Before him, his father Frank Goldsmith had been a prolific Jewishpolitician as well. Frank, a hotelier of German descent, had been aConservative MP,” explains Reham Khan.
Imran’s former wife shares that besides his portfolio of 48 hotels, he wasknown for being one of the founders of the King David Hotel in EastJerusalem and over 46% of the hotel was funded by notable Jews.
During the six-day war, the hotel was extended, claims Reham Khan
