Jemima Goldsmith criticizes Pak govt for targeting Imran Khan’s family members
"No family should ever be used as pawns in political battles," she warned.
ISLAMABAD: Jemima Goldsmith, the ex-wife of PTI founder Imran Khan, has accused the Pakistani government of targeting the Khan family in a ruthless campaign of political vendetta.
In a social media post, Jemima claimed that her sons’ cousin Aleema Khan’s sons Shahrez and Sher Shah were forcibly taken from their homes in front of their young children and sent to jail. She also revealed that another relative, Hassan Niazi, has been detained in a military facility for over a year.
The British socialite further alleged that her own sons Suleman and Qasim have been threatened with arrest if they try to meet their father in Pakistan. “No family should ever be used as pawns in political battles,” she warned.
