KARACHI: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chief Imran Khan said on Sunday that no major leader of the country pays tax and the entire burden falls on the ordinary people.

Speaking to the media at the Karachi airport, Khan said that the entire nation was facing serious insecurities while the police was busy protecting only the VIPs of the country.

Khan said that the "Namoos-i-Risalat" law was not new and has existed since the British era.

He also said that there are many other problems in Pakistan aside from petrol prices and MQM should speak on those also.
