Cricketer-turned-Politician Imran Khan gets married yet again
Rumours finally died down about the third wedding of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Sunday as the party confirmed that the PTI chief has married Bushra Manika.
PTI spokesman Fawad Chaudhry confirmed that Khan’s nikah was solemnised Sunday by Mufti Saeed, a member of PTI core committee.
Soon after, the party leader had also broken his silence through a series of tweets, saying, "My crime is wanting to get married" and that he was looking for "personal happiness".
The News in an article published in January had claimed that Khan had married for the third time in a secret ceremony on January 1, saying that Mufti Saeed had performed the nikkah. PTI, which had originally refuted the claim, 'clarified' a few days after the report was published that Khan had proposed marriage to Bushra Maneka, believed to be a respected Pir (faith healer) in Pakpattan.Wishing Chairman @ImranKhanPTI and his wife a happy married life .
