Islamabad: Imran Khan yesterday accused Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif of pursuing his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi's interests in Pakistan as the government cracked down on the cricketer-turned-politician's supporters with police arresting over 100 of them.
"Nawaz is following Modi's âinterests' in Pakistan. Nawaz is behind the security leaks story which defamed the armed forces. Actually his and Modi's agenda is same," the Pakistan Tahreek-i-Insaf Chairman said. Khan asserted that "everybody knows" that sacked Information Minister Pervaiz Rashid cannot leak sensitive information to the media on his own.
Rashid was sacked over the recent "leaked" media report about a rift between the civilian and military leaderships on support to militancy. "Rashid is a darbari (courtier) and he did what Nawaz told him to do so," he said.
