LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan is on a 5-day trip to London where after attending the wedding ceremony of business tycoon Anil Mussarat’s daughter, which is estimated to have cost around £4 million, he is spending time with his family, especially with his kids.
Imran Khan is soon to return to Pakistan. The threat of a loss at NA-120 looms large as the recent Gallup survey predicts. However, Khan is yet in London while the NA-120 campaign continues at home.
Sources say that it is a must that Khan will have to return before the much-awaited NA-120, Lahore election, to be held on September 17. The seat was left vacant after former Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif was disqualified by the apex court of Pakistan.
It was also learned that Khan will be spending the rest of the days of his trip with his family, especially his sons who had recently visited him in Nathia Gali, at his residence, when they flew to Pakistan for their summer vacations.
Imran Khan has been posting regularly on Twitter and other official accounts, with highlights from his time he spends with his kids.
It is also noteworthy that Anil Mussarat is a close aide of Imran Khan and a staunch supporter of his Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Centre. It is pertinent to mention here that, according to sources, Anil Mussarat has been funding the PTI and its campaign, time and again.
Jehangir Khan Tareen, Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Babar Awan, Khursheed Qasuri and PTI’s close affiliate Sheik Rasheed also attended the wedding ceremony.
Bollywood celebrities Karan Johar, Hrithik Roshan, Ranveer Singh and Anil Kapoor were also present on the occasion.
Khan was also called upon on stage where he delivered a quick word.
