Imran Khan explains the so-called "benami transaction"

[Keepinformed]

If "Benami" transactions are allowed in law, not sure what the fuss is about. There seems to be no law broken on legal levels. Tax avoidance through legal loopholes is a common practice all over the world. Remember if it was illegal there would be a law against it.

Same goes with Zardari and others. Unless there is proof of malpractice backed by the laws of the land, there is little anyone can do.

Its visible that Imran Khan is lying totally. A leader is one who comes prepared for a interview, any qs can be asked. But, what a silly reason IK gave! TSUNAMI is getting destroyed day by day and will be finished till elections. [hilar] [hilar] [hilar]

The real issue is:
1. Imran Khan claims that his wife bought the land since he had no money, when he later got the money he bought back the land from his wife.
2. The paper, a legal document signed by his wife claims that actually Imran Khan had bought the land not his wife.
3. This means either Imran Khan is lying or his wife is which in both instances damage Imran Khan.

Important point is Imran Khan accepts the authenticity of the document, then claims the paper was written by a lawyer thus implying that his wife just signed the paper as a routine matter. This is not true as this is a legal paper and if his wife was dumb enough to sign a legal affidavit without reading it in eyes of law that is her official position. Now I understand that legal practices have been rather shabby in Pakistan but it is important since based on such documents Imran is defaming other politicians. At long last he gets a dose of his own medicines and there is lots more to come considering the legal practices in Pakistan (bigsmile)

Peoples, I actually uploaded the video to not only show Imran Khan's stance on the issue, but how he's getting angry for the RIGHT reasons : I mean, is THAT what anti-PTI can do ?


As Jemima explains :

"For the last time- I will clarify the issue of IK land transfer. Nothing remotely illegal. Is this the best IK's opponents can come up with?"

https://twitter.com/Jemima_Khan/statuses/206881080542892033

"02 IK borrowed money from me to buy land (bought in my name). 03 his London flat sold. He paid me back. 04 we divorced. I transferred land."

Then why did she claim in a legal document signed by herself that Imran khan bought the plot on his own and she has nothing to do with the plot (Imran did not borrow any money!)

It does not say that IK did not borrow the money from her, does it?

it does not mention where the money comes from, all it says it IK bought it, but doesn't say where the money comes from.

 

[Sedqal]

It does. Please read the actual document I will paste a portion of it:

Para-3 “The land was transferred in my name through mutations No. 7056, 7225, 7361, 7538, by my ex-husband Mr Imran Ahmed Khan Niazi as a “benami transaction.” After the separation/divorce between me and Mr Imran Ahmed Khan Niazi, I do not intend to keep the land with me.” ​

points to consider:
1. Imran Khan accepts that docuemnt is no forgery it is original.
2. Jamaima Khan claims in a legal document that she received a land from Imran Khan as "Benami Transaction". Now this is her official position not a tweet or interview it is a signed legal document.
3. imran Khan earlier promised that he will leave politics if a single case of Benami Transaction can be traced to him.

You people are making no sense, you are saying that it is no benami transaction when the wife herself claims so. Jhoot key pair nahi hotey (bigsmile)

Sorry to disagree with you bro...

before I explain you my point, just explain me this,
It is a legal documents, then how come legal document allowed BENAMI ???

 

[Aijazahmed]

Yes it looks like that... I don't believe he ever did such a tax steeling...But the problem is this document is putting some serious allegation. If the land was purchased by Imran Khan, then why Jemima said that the land was purchased by Imran Khan? And if it was purchased by Jemima, then why she said in the affidavit that "after the divorce, she doesn't intend to keep the land and is transferring back to Imran Khan" ... I think PTI and Imran Khan should bring forward some document proofs of transactions being done between Imran Khan and Jemima if Imran actually purchased the land from Jemima... Fingers crossed and waiting to see how the situations folds out..

If you want to understand, this is a simple matter of relationship between husband and wife.
Husband wanted to buy a piece of property (in this case a piece of land) that was an excellent opportunity for investment. Husand had one flat in England that he wanted to sell and then purchase this new property in Pakistan, but the problem was, they did not know how long it will take to sell the England's flat, they might be afraid by the time they sale that flat , the land in Pakistan would either be sold or the price would go up.
So, wife decided to purchase this land with her own money with the good faith that when the husband would be able to sale his flat in England, he will return that money to her, and she will transfer the land on husband's name. This is a very common but right and legal practice that is allowed in everywhere, even in Islam there is no restrictions on this type of transaction.

So, my dear what is the FUSS here? Why people like this Kashif Abbasi making a non issue an issue? I don't understand here. this is totally a try to "program ka pait bherna". PERIOD

 

[NonStopLeo]

Kashif ko ager law ka nahi pata to program sy pehly kisi sy consult ker liya hota

This is causing frustration amongst us... I have first time seen Imran Khan confused on a TV show... he should explain this ASAP with some real proof... In the affidavit, Jemima tells that the land was actually purchased by Imran Ahmad Khan and transferred to her name .... and after divorce she is returning the land.... there is no mention of any sale or purchase taken place... I'm getting disappointed on it.

What is the purpose of this benami ???benami means, you have money and you want to buy some thing and are not interested in telling the source of your income, so you find a way benami to buy some property,so that no one could know about this,
you buy on some one's name. no one knows about that, in this way, you are not bound to tell the proof of your earning for that property,

But in this case, Imran is not hiding this property, he is living here and this property is the only property of his life time earning.

In his life, he just made this only property,
There is nothing, you can not understand, I do not see any problem here, it is not benami at all,

Why you people Beating the line. Affidavit from jemima is not the actual document. First check the actual documents which must be sale deed or conveyance deed or gift deed these documents are the title documents. What is the purpose of affidavit is just to authorize Saifullah Niazi.
