Amid political turmoil in Pakistani, a woman named Farah Khan has managed to grab headlines after her picture went viral on social media for all the wrong reasons. Farah Khan, the much-talked-about friend of the outgoing Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan's wife, Bushra Bibi, has reportedly fled the country amid rumours of corruption.
A picture of Farah Khan sitting inside a flight, with a purple coloured-luxury handbag, allegedly worth USD 90,000 has gone viral. Apparently, on April 3, Farah Khan left the country to flee to Dubai, the very day Imran Khan dissolved the National Assembly and the no trust motion was dismissed by the speaker.
Shortly after she left, the photo of Farah Khan with her USD 90,000 worth handbag made waves on Pakistani Twitter.
PML-N leader and former Foreign Minister of Pakistan Miftah Ismail in a press conference alleged that Farah Khan's bag featured in the picture cost USD 90,000. He and former Pakistan PM Shahid Khaqan Abbasi charged Farah Khan for taking along with her the money for the transfer of civil servants in Pakistan's Punjab. This has led to everyone asking, 'who is this lady'?
