The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) filed a disqualification reference against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Secretary General Jahangir Khan Tareen to the National Assembly speaker on Thursday.
The reference was submitted to NA Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq in his chamber.
In the reference, submitted by PML-N’s Talal Chaudhry, Daniyal Aziz and Maiza Hameed, accused Tareen for hiding tax details and giving fake information in tax returns.
The PML-N urged to take legal actions against PTI leader as per article 63/2 of the Constitution.
Reacting on PML-N’s reference, Tareen remarked, “I had not laughed for many days but now I openly did so over the reference.”
He said that the entire nation knows I am Pakistan’s forefront tax payer politician. He asserted that he would stand by Imran Khan despite all such references.
“Whether I remain a part of the assembly or not, the Accountability Movement (Ehtesab Tehreek) will continue,” he said and added that he would take this campaign to its logical end with Imran.
