Speaking to media representatives at the Dhamial checkpoint on her way to visit her imprisoned brother, Aleema said: \u201cWhat happened yesterday, I strongly condemn it. When someone is deliberately sent with a purpose, that\u2019s not journalism. This was all done knowingly\u2014people were incited.\u201d She explained that only a few family members come to visit Imran Khan, but \u201ccertain individuals deliberately behave inappropriately.\u201d She added that she even prevented her own sons from accompanying her. \u201cHad they come, they might\u2019ve been booked under terrorism charges too. That\u2019s why we came alone today. Everything is being done with a clear agenda,\u201d she stated. Aleema also addressed recent allegations regarding her US property and alleged misuse of Shaukat Khanum Hospital fundraising funds, saying, \u201cWho said my US property was bought with donations? A journalist\u2019s job is to show proof if they have any. My property was bought with my hard-earned, lawful income. I am a textile exporter with a legitimate business. By dragging my profession into unrelated questions, you&#8217;re damaging not only me but Pakistan\u2019s export industry.\u201d Aleema also referred to a recent incident where an egg was thrown at her, claiming, \u201cNo one is asking about that. Maybe Bushra Bibi\u2019s sister misunderstood something. If I staged the egg attack myself, then why did the police escort those women away? We\u2019re not bothered by humiliation\u2014we\u2019ll keep coming.\u201d Throughout the exchange, she repeatedly addressed journalists as \u201cbrother\u201d and \u201cson,\u201d in an attempt to ease tensions. Noreen Niazi, another sister of former prime minister Imran Khan, defended Shaukat Khanum Hospital, saying: \u201cIt belongs to everyone. Don\u2019t question its credibility. As for Naeem Panjotha\u2019s actions\u2014ask him. We are here for our brother and sister-in-law.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RAWALPINDI(National times)- PTI founder Imran Khan\u2019s sister Aleema Khan has criticised what she described as &#8220;planted journalism,&#8221; claiming that individuals sent to cover events outside Adiala Jail are not acting as impartial reporters.
