Miftah lashes out journalist: When challenged about importing a luxury car in the cash-strapped country during the Karachi Literary Festival, Miftah Ismail, a former finance minister, and displeased PML-N leader, exploded at the reporter.
The scathing exchange of insults quickly gained popularity on social media and even divided the internet, with some criticising the PML-N leader for losing his composure and others praising him for responding appropriately to the “baseless charges.”
Since that the nation’s foreign exchange reserves are in danger, a prominent journalist questioned the former finance czar on whether he purchased BMW vehicles. Then, when he was not the current Finance Minister Ishaq Dar, he was asked what change he would have made.
Miftah snapped at the elderly man for accusing him of importing and operating a premium car as it seemed that he misinterpreted the question. He questioned how you could charge me with such corruption, claiming that similar accusations had landed him in jail.
“Now have a seat and pay attention as I speak. Whichever BMW I imported “He enquired. Miftah claimed that while serving as the finance minister, he used to drive his own car and pay for gas.
The PML-N published this video on social media and praised the leader of their Karachi chapter. Please observe, ladies and gentlemen, how to neutralize brainwashed zombies. Take a bow, Miftah reads the tweet posted on its account.
