ISLAMABAD, August 23: Former president Asif Ali Zardari Tuesday came down hard on Imran Khan for criticising army and hurling threats at state officials, stating that Imran Khan’s lust for power was driving him crazy with each passing day. During a meeting with the provincial ministers of Sindh, he said that all four provinces of the country were currently faced with an emergency situation due to rains. “All of us should set politics aside at this time and focus only on our flood-hit brothers and sisters. Their stares in four provinces are at us,” he pointed out. “But, at this critical time in the country, a man’s lust for power is driving him crazy with each passing day,” he said while clearly hinting at former prime minister Imran Khan. “This person [Imran Khan] is criticising our army every day while the officers and the soldiers of the same army are fighting terrorists in two provinces and sacrificing their lives,” he pointed out. – SABAH
