PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s former wife Jemima Khan on Monday rejected PML-N accusations, saying she never gave Imran a penny nor did he ask for it.
Through a message on social networking site Twitter, Jemima said, “Imran took no money from me. Neither will he be taking money from Pakistan, unlike those who started these rumours.”
She was quite amazed and added, “Can’t believe we’re divorced and I’m still Imran’s Achilles’ heel. He has faults but greed is not one of them, unlike many in Pakistani politics.”
In another tweet she laid all the rumors to rest by saying, “No. I did not give him a London flat either. He owned a flat in London when we met, which he bought with his cricket earnings.”
She admitted that she loaned him money in 2003 but “he gave it all back to me when he sold the flat in London, in order to pay for his house outside Islamabad”. She also clarified that she initially paid the money for the house until he sold his flat and then paid her back.
She said Imran was known as an honest man who never tried to take any financial benefits from his rich wife.
“In other words,” she tweeted, “he ended with all the disadvantages of marrying someone with money (smears, innuendo, envy) with none of the advantages.”
