ISLAMABAD: Former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi retained all the 112 valuables worth Rs 142.02 million gifted by other countries, either for free or purchasing at throwaway prices of Rs 38 million.

The official documents available with APP revealed that Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi retained 52 free gifts worth Rs 800,200 without paying a single penny.

The list of Toshakhana gifts received by PM Khan between August 2018 and December 2021 remained a secret during his tenure, making the situation scandalous to reports of hiding the information from the tax authorities.

Toshakhana, a department under the Cabinet Division maintains the record of the precious gifts given to rulers, parliamentarians, and officials by heads of other governments, states, and foreign dignitaries as a goodwill gesture.

The then government had adopted the stance that the disclosure of any information related to Toshakhana would jeopardise international ties.

The list of gifts showed that the other valuables were kept by the couple after paying an extremely less amount than the assessed value.

Imran Khan, wife paid Rs 38 mln to retain foreign gifts worth Rs 142 mln, documents reveal From seven luxurious Rolex and other expensive watches to gold and diamond jewelry including multiple necklaces, bracelets, rings, multiple diamond chains, an expensive pen and cufflinks worth millions, dinner sets, perfumes, and Oud fragrance, the couple retained everything that different states of the world were gifting to Pakistan.
