Imran’s use of wheelchair is divine retribution: Marriyum

ISLAMABAD: Marriyum Aurangzeb, minister of information and broadcasting, claimed on Thursday that Imran’s use of a wheelchair to skip court proceedings was divine vengeance because he had previously made fun of other people for their illnesses.

She said in a statement that someone who made fun of Sharif’s family members’ illnesses was lying in a wheelchair today, alluding to Imran Khan but not specifically naming him. The minister urged the PTI Chairman to appear in court and present evidence rather than engage in a blame game. According to Marriyum, Imran frequently adapts his attire and speech to the circumstances. She claimed Imran was employing a wheelchair as a strategy out of fear of his bail being revoked.

“If the court calls him, he has the excuses of plaster, disability, canister and now wheelchair”, she remarked.

Marriyum said first, Imran played a dirty game of cypher, then apologized to the US and blamed General Bajwa, Asif Zardari and now Mohsin Naqvi for his ouster.

She also blamed Imran for his alleged campaign against martyrs and national institutions and asked him to come out of his house before asking others for agitation.
