Masood Sharif Khattak, who on Friday formally announced to join Pakistan Tehrek-e-Insaaf (PTI), was blamed for corruption in the past.
He was imprisoned in 1996 by the government of Farooq Ahmad Khan Leghari for launching widespread wiretapping against government officials.
Released in 2000, he unsuccessfully contested the 2002 general elections from Karak as a Pakistan Peoples’ Party candidate. He resigned from the PPP in 2007 after he raised objections on National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO). When Benazir Bhutto signed NRO, he had written an open letter against it which was published in media. He remained member of PPP CEC for 10 years.
According to sources, Khattak was allegedly arrested along with foreign currency hidden in cases when his house was raided in Islamabad after ousting the PPP government in 1996.
Masood Sharif also tried his best to join PML-N but could not succeed as Farid Toofan and Rahmat Salam Khattak were his rivals.

  1. no matter how much corrupt he was??? at least he ll ve to follow the rules and menifesto of Pakistan Tehreek-e-insaf nd we beleive that IMRAN KHAN will place no corrupt leader in his party

  2. Listen guys I was planning to join PTI but these kind of people like Khattak, Amjad Mir, Rasheed Bhatti, Mian Mahmood ur Rasheed, Waleed Iqbal etc…… are resisting me to join PTI; this whole situation creates doubts regarding the Agenda of Change of PTI. Is this called a change if those ppl with corrupt background become the brains and mainstream leaders of the party and get tickets for the elections?

  3. So this the change PTI leader has been promising the nation for so many year that once he come to the govt. he will give us bunch of old loosers as a gift.??

  4. People from different walks of life are joining PTI. Some of them have not very good reputation. On Nov 13, I think IK is going to address this issue.

    If he is unable to address this issue then all these slogans for change will go in to vain.

  5. wither went his “Asoolon ki siasat” pti is loosing ground by inducting these “shunned politcos” the more time come closer the more imran going towards these “…… grandees” , why does imran not realise that he is not needed the sport of these “grabbers” , “Lahore congregation was not of these people, they were just disgruntled people , tired and got fatigue by these dynastic polticos, if imran rides into this current , he is destined to fall,,,, must remeber imran has lost his key man in Balochistan,,,, he too has been despaired due to his fits and starts in politcs

  6. ok here every user is ‘expert’ in politics…!! and knows every thing about each ‘politican’..lolz….also trust everything whatever media says…lolzzzz….lush pash..!!!

  7. That’s just the beginning we need to realize that agencies army and intelligence is behind him ,old Mushraf govt is commin back .voting imran we gonna end up having zardari . If he really need a change he better try in sindh and kp.

  8. Why we always jump into the conclusion,,,Do you beleive Saifur Rehman cases were justified,,he spend 4 years in jail,,,,and then released and no cases on him,,,his name is not in NRO,,,,,,,,

  9. Well, Mr. Clean has been gathering all the old school corrupt people under his banner. I think that after 15 years he is tired and he would like to be the typical politician to gather corrupt people and just win election so he can be a billionaire too.

  10. Khattak sb iz as clean as imran khan, dont blame any1 without knowing him or having any evidence against him..he wasnt rejected by pmln bcoz of toofan nd salam bcoz v knw khattak sb iz far more popular thn both of thm..nd v his fanz convinced him to join pti just see his profile thn speculate nd talk baseless thingz

  11. Because of this guy Imran will lose silent supporters from Karachi also….he is been a''mutassib person'' for Karachi.

  12. Farid Toofan is an ANP stalwart. Rehmat Salam was a nazim and is weaker than Masood Sharif. its a good thing he never joined Muslim League. He will bolster PTI a lot cuz he has a lot of support in Karak.

  13. Other than drones and hollow sloganeering about sovereignty, anti corruption is the only political message by the PTI. This though important cannot and will not translate into any kind of mass support. The influx of new but corrupt opportunists in PTI does not ‘relief ‘ for the besieged Pakistan.

  14. Cant expect anything more than this from Imran….

    Be aware: Jews are getting more stronger in pakistan….

  15. Imran Khan has got the main Leader in K.P.K and we expect that more heavy weight like Khattak will join PTI through out in Pakistan..Congrats PTI

  16. when pti comes in power then masood sharif again launch operation against muhajir and pushed them in india again well done imran khan

  17. What a start Imran Khan !! If this is your type of revolution and people like Khattak are your ideals then we do not want revolution in Pakistan.

  18. We should start being Objective now. Once we try this, I am sure we shall stop wasting our time in the so-called leg pulling and become futuristic. The best way to address Corruption, or whatever "CHARGES" is to "Consider someone Innocent, UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY". When are we going to change our approach towards what we don't even have a hint of. I cannot see any CORRUPTION CHARGES mentioned in the above article.

  19. Let the people join but I hope the party ticket will be given to those who are clean. This is politics of constituency and we cannot bring all new faces.

    Trust Imran Khan he will never let you down.

  20. Okay so this guy wiretapped phone lines of government officials? Sounds to me that he was trying to weed out corruption by gathering evidence against government officials.

    He was against the NRO and he resigned? Sounds to me like a man with integrity.

    How's he corrupt again?

  22. He was blamed for, it doesnt prove the crime, 2ndly when PM will be honest , the federal investigation agencies will be able to work freely and all the black sheeps will be caught, so plz give KHAn a chance

  23. Nthng wrong on masood cz he hs been tried in th court and released so exclude these charges plz, further he will be an asset cz he knws th in and outs of th inside of politics as well as agencies

  24. Listen folks if you dont like IK or what he is trying to achieve then dont vote for him and continue to follow the zardaris, sharifs, choudharies, Wali Khans, Altaafs of this world. Afterall its not like we need to make any fundamental changes in pak as everything is working fine. The federal government has total control over the economy, power, etc, whilst the provisional governments are in a different league alltogether – just look at education, health transport in punjab, sindh, KP and balochistan.

  25. What non sense! charges of wire tapping? One should ask who must have given the orders for that? And trying to leave the country with a case full of money! wow how corrupt. Who has billions in swiss bank accounts? Who takes a cut out of every deal? Since 2008 government has brrrowed 13.8 Billion dollars of external debt – where has that money gone… do you have more electricity more colleges what? Wake guys the contry is going towards a ajor bankruptcy and we dont have EU to bail us out like Greece.

  26. Choudhary Shujaat of Q league has said one very interesting thing about Pakistan Tehreek-e- Insaaf. According to him, tehreek-e-insaaf is behaving like a dry cleaner of corrupt leaders of different parties to join PTI.

    Every sort of corrupt and thrown out of failed leaders are joining PTI to get it worse and worse

  27. عمران خان صاحب 59 سال کے ہوچکے ہیں اور اگلے سال اگر الیکشن ہوتے ہیں تو عمران خان سٹھیا چکے ہونگے یعنی 60 سال کے ہوگئے ہونگے۔

    کیا خوب بات ہے کہ تحریک انصاف میں عمران خان صاحب، چیمہ صاحب، شریف خٹک صاحب اور ان ہی عمروں کے لیڈران نظر آرہے ہیں جبکہ تحریک انصاف بات نوجوانوںکی کرتی ہے۔

  28. Those who are joining Imran khan knows that ,what is the requirement . To be clean so dont cry .
