Former Pakistan PM Imran Khan on Saturday flew to Karachi on a chartered flight to address a political rally which triggered fresh controversies at a time the beleaguered former PM is facing allegations of stealing state wealth by retaining precious gifts that should belong to the state treasury.
As a purported photo of Imran Khan walking out of a private jet went viral on social media with various claims about the ownership of the jet, Karachi-based Engro Corporation put out a statement claiming the ownership of the plane. But it said the company did not bear any expenses related to the flight.
With regards to media speculation around Engro’s ownership of the private jet taken by ex-PM Imran Khan for the political gathering in Karachi, we wish to clarify that although the plane is owned by Engro Fertilizers, it was chartered to Princely Jets as a routine practice.(1/2) https://t.co/FPo1frn9Ki
