Donor claims PTI has been hijacked, accuses leadership of mishandling party funds
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf cannot ensure provision of justice to the common people when it cannot provide justice to its own worker, claimed Pakistani-American donor Mehboob Aslam while holding a press conference at the residence of a PTI’s founder member Akbar Babar on Sunday.
Aslam said Imran Khan was surrounded by opportunists and land grabbers, who were being consulted to run the party affairs while ideological workers had been sidelined.
He said he had worked for the party in the US and had raised funds worth $ 3 million for the 2008 general elections.
“However, when I visited Pakistan, reviewed the causes of the party’s defeat in the polls and talked with ideological workers, I found that the party had been hijacked by corrupt and bankrupt people, who had been assigned important responsibilities in the party,” he claimed.
He said the money he sent had been used in the intra party elections, while the party tickets were even sold.
He said Imran mistreated him when he went to him to complain against the alleged misappropriation and his minions kicked him out.
The PTI spokesperson rejected the allegations. “The PTI chief met with Aslam Mehboob and his six-member-delegation in spite of the fact that he had been dismissed from the party,” he said. “The party accounts have even undergone a forensic audit but no irregularity was found.”
we are worried about the elligations against P T I.no doubt transperency should be the first perriority of any organisation and it should be up to dated too.my suggustion is few people whoes honesty could be proved should head the transperency board.morever party matters are decieded by the chair person rather than the donners.it could be the result of blockage of netto supply bcause American dollers could be linked with the pain of other political parties
This man who calls himself Pakistani American donor appears to be a very small man.He did not mention how much he donated and to whom but seems to expect something in return. A typical menial mentality. What profession this Mahboob is in there, is also not known.PT tell your Staff Reporter to ask for money from you rather than ANP,Nawaz League or Middlesex Party called PPP.
He is no one as per our records total contribution was 120 dollars
