SC summons tax record of Aleema Khan

Supreme court Islamabad

ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court on Friday sought tax record of Aleema Khan, sister of Prime Minister Imran Khan, in a case related to her properties in Dubai, ARY News reported.

The apex court was informed by a Federal Board of Revenue member that Ms Khan availed the tax amnesty scheme.

The FBR official said amnesty scheme record could be presented on the court orders. The CJP, in his remarks, ordered that the tax details be given to the court, adding “We will look into it.”

Earlier responding to FIA notice, Ms Aleema reportedly told the inquiry officer that she acquired property abroad but now she has sold this asset.

Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif on Wednesday had also demanded of the National Accountability Bureau to investigate the properties of Aleema Khan in Dubai.

Talking informally to reporters at the accountability court in Islamabad, Nawaz said that he is not in habit of doing politics of allegations, but if he stayed silent, opponents claim that he [Nawaz] had made compromises.

“From where Aleema Khan accumulated properties worth billions of rupees. She has no sources of income. She must provide money trail of her properties in Dubai,” said Nawaz.

Young girl’s tragic story makes her symbol of Yemen war

Buthaina Mansur al-Rimi’s life has changed drastically since last year — orphaned in Sanaa, the little girl controversially ended up in Saudi Arabia for medical care and has just returned to Yemen’s capital. Her entire immediate family was wiped out in an air strike by a Saudi-led coalition that backs Yemen’s government, using an explosive device Amnesty International says was made in the US. Images of Buthaina’s rescue and a picture of her swollen and bruised at a hospital trying to force open one of her eyes with her fingers were beamed worldwide. That international fame saw her become something of a propaganda pawn in the war between Yemen’s Iran-backed Huthi rebels and Saudi media. “I was in my mother’s room with my father, sisters, brother and uncle, the first missile hit, and my father went to get us sugar to get over the shock, but then the second missile hit, and then the third,” she says. “And then the house fell,” adds the little girl, who says she is eight.
