Imran Khan asked for torture of Nasir Janjua to turn him against Maryam Nawaz, claims Bashir Memon

Khan was very furious after Maryam’s July 2019 presser wherein she released a video of former judge Arshed Malik, says Bashir Memon

LONDON: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) former head Bashir Memon has revealed that former prime minister Imran Khan and his then-principal secretary Azam Khan time and again forced him to use all legal and illegal means, including the use of torture and anti-terrorism laws, to force Islamabad businessman Mian Nasir Janjua to give a false confessional statement against Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Senior Vice President Maryam Nawaz in judge Arshed Malik video scandal.

The FIA’s former director general said he refused to obey illegal orders from the former premier and his principal secretary. Memon said that Imran Khan was very furious after Maryam in July 2019 held a press conference with other key PML-N leaders and released a video of former accountability judge Malik confessing that he was blackmailed and put under pressure by establishment figures to convict Nawaz in the Al-Azizia case before 2018 general elections in order to pave way for Imran Khan to become the prime minister. 

Memon went on to say that after the press conference, it was planned in the PM House that Janjua, who was a 30-years-old trusted friend of  Nawaz and owner of renowned corporate giant MIDJAC, should be made the main culprit since he is a businessman and would be an easy target to become an approver against Maryam and senior PML-N leadership.
