PESHAWAR: Adviser to the chief minister on information Barrister Mohammad Ali Saif on Thursday called for polygraph test of all politicians who owned properties abroad.
He said that founder Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan had no foreign assets or properties and had already been declared “Sadiq and Ameen” by the Supreme Court of Pakistan, said an official statement issued from his office.
The statement said that the chief minister’s adviser specifically named former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, stating that his silence during recent Pakistan-India tensions raised questions and warranted a polygraph test. “The first polygraph test should be of Nawaz Sharif,” he emphasised.
He further said that the people of Pakistan effectively conducted a polygraph test of both Imran Khan and the Sharif family through their vote on Feb 8, 2024.
“How can a fake government with a fake mandate subject Imran Khan to a polygraph test? Such a regime is even capable of fabricating the results,” he added.
He strongly criticised the current rulers, labeling them as a ‘mafia’ imposed on the country.
“They are looting the national treasury with both hands and building properties abroad while showing no concern for the people of Pakistan,” he said.
He said the fake government could not use ‘polygraph propaganda’ to remove Imran Khan from the hearts of the people, adding that the people had already given mandate to Imran Khan.
