Why Imran evading trial if he has not plundered: Sherry  Rehman

ISLAMABAD: Senator Sherry Rehman, the federal minister for climate change, claimed on Tuesday that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan failed to show up in court despite being called in connection with the Toshkhana case. She questioned why he was reluctant to stand trial if he hadn’t stolen the Toshakhana gifts. The former prime minister was criticized by the minister for avoiding the court appearance. Imran Khan had stated, “I am not at home, but I will appear in court on the seventh. Imran Khan is disobeying the law and the judicial system once more today.

This is the elite and mafia of the country who consider themselves above the law,” Sherry Rehmansaid.  No criminal had ever got the same facilities and privileges from the court as the “Ladley (dear one) Khan” was getting, she added. “For which criminal the court waits for a whole day?” she queried. “Our leaders were ordered strictly to appear in court. Why legal and judicial principles are not the same for all?” “Why is Imran Khan, who demanded a public hearing of the Toshakhana case, refusing to answer questions in the court? All the time, why did those who shouted thieves and thieves run away from answering their thefts?” the minister raised questions.
