JIT reports on Panama Papers, fake accounts `case studies in how states fail': PM

ISLAMABAD: Describing the reports of Joint Investigation Teams (JITs) on Panama Papers and fake accounts as “case studies in how states fail,” Prime Minister Imran Khan Tuesday said he was puzzled and perplexed by those who were still defending the plunderers.

“The Panama JIT report and the Fake Accounts JIT report are case studies in how states fail - getting impoverished and drowning in debt. The scale and methods used for siphoning off public money are incredulous and mind-boggling,” the prime minister said in a tweet posted on his social media account.

“I am puzzled and perplexed by those who, despite having read the two reports, are still defending the plunderers,” he remarked.
