ISLAMABAD: Hitting back at the Qaumi Watan Party (QWP), Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan said on Thursday that he was determined not to compromise on corruption in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government.

In his reply to allegations levelled by QWP leader Sikandar Sherpao, he said the nation donated money for the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital because of his honesty. The PTI chief said the Namal College in Mianwali was another proof and he never interfered in working of both institutions.

“I challenge everyone to prove corruption against me. I will not allow corruption in the government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,” he said.

The party’s information secretary, Dr Shireen Mazari, said the QWP leader’s allegations were baseless and an attempt to cover up the corruption done by ministers of his party. She claimed that Mr Sherpao had shown at his press conference a forged letter with fake signatures of the PTI chairman.—Ikram Junaidi
