      <title>Buzdar denies corruption allegations against Bushra Bibi, Farah Khan
</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30283202/</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Punjab former Chief Minister Usman Buzdar has denied allegations of corruption targeting the prime minister's wife Bushra Bibi and her close friend Farah Khan.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;He slammed the opposition for making baseless accusations against housewives, like the first lady and Farah Khan. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;“The only purpose is to criticise Imran Khan in any way — you will fail because no one can point a finger at Imran Khan's honesty!” he tweeted.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--stretch  media--uneven media--embed  '&gt;
				&lt;div class='media__item    media__item--twitter  '&gt;    &lt;span&gt;
        &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"&gt;
            &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/UsmanAKBuzdar/status/1511626908152307719"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
        &lt;/blockquote&gt;
    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
				
			&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;			&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;He was referring to estranged PTI leaders and opposition members' claims that Farah Khan was taking bribes to transfer public officials to postings of their choice. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;He was probably also referring to an audio leak featuring Aleem Khan, wherein he can be &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/MurtazaViews/status/1511064231503872005?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1511064231503872005%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;amp;ref_url=https://hindustannewshub.com/world-news/amidst-the-political-crisis-in-pakistan-the-game-of-mud-shoveling-is-going-on-fiercely/"&gt;heard&lt;/a&gt; saying that Bushra Bibi received jewelry from Malik Riaz, a claim denied by the Bahria Town owner. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;“I strongly deny the allegations levelled by Aleem Khan, Chaudhry Sarwar and other opposition members as they are baseless and without proof,” tweeted Buzdar.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--stretch  media--uneven media--embed  '&gt;
				&lt;div class='media__item    media__item--twitter  '&gt;    &lt;span&gt;

            &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/UsmanAKBuzdar/status/1511625751883309060"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
        &lt;/blockquote&gt;
    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
				
			&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;			&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;He said all postings were made on merit and the opposition had a habit of making baseless allegations. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;He said the PML-N has yet to prove a "single corruption scandal" against him or his cabinet during his tenure and demanded they bring proof to their claims. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Farah Khan in the news&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bushra Bibi's close friend has been in the news since the corruption allegations against her began to surface. They reached a fever pitch when it emerged on Sunday that she had left for Dubai, the day the prime minister asked for the assemblies to be dissolved. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A &lt;a href="https://www.aaj.tv/news/30283165/"&gt;photo&lt;/a&gt; of her in a private jet seated with an Hermes bag that is said to cost $90,000 also became the topic of intense debate on social media. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--stretch  media--uneven media--embed  '&gt;
				&lt;div class='media__item    media__item--twitter  '&gt;    &lt;span&gt;

        &lt;/blockquote&gt;
    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
				
			&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;			&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;PML-N leader Miftah Ismail also commented on the photo in his press conference on Tuesday. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;He said the public was told to eat “one roti” instead of two whereas Farah Khan’s bag was worth Rs16.2 million.&lt;/p&gt;
