**Attock: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz Vice President Maryam Nawaz said on Friday that Imran Khan’s “contradictory claims regarding the purported foreign conspiracy had exposed him as a liar who is now concocting stories to blame his ouster on others”.

“First he said the letter was sent in March. Now he is claiming that he knew about the conspiracy since last July,” she said while addressing a public gathering in Attock’s Fateh Jung. This is the first stop of PML-N’s seven-city political campaign. It coincides with PTI’s anti-government drive which is expected to culminate in Islamabad at the end of March.

Imran, in a podcast released on Thursday, stated that he had known of the conspiracy since July.

“He lost his mind as soon as he lost power,” said Mariam. “Everyday he comes up with a new lie.”

She said that Imran was more upset over Shehbaz Sharif becoming prime minister than getting removed himself. “Get used to this feeling [Imran Khan] because the coming era is of the PML-N.”

She said that Imran was worried that Shehbaz Sharif as PM would unearth Imran Khan’s corruption.

Talking about Farah Gogi, a close friend and confidante of Imran’s wife Bushra who the PML-N says served as a frontwoman, she said that she would be brought back to Pakistan to answer and held accountable.
