LAHORE: Pakistan PM Nawaz Sharif's family has refuted allegations by opposition party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's chief Imran Khan that they own property and businesses in India.
"Imran Khan should not misguide the nation by propaganda," the family's spokesman said, adding that the cricketer should be "ashamed" that he was "spreading baseless allegations and lies".
"Imran Khan has time and again claimed that the Sharif family has businesses in India, although the allegations have always been denied by the latter as baseless," the spokesperson was quoted as saying by Pakistani channel Geo News.

In September, Pakistani politician Tahir-ul-Qadri, the chairman of Pakistan Awami Tehreek, alleged that the Sharif family had employed hundreds of Indian workers, a charge later refuted by Sharif Group of Industries' managing director (MD) Yousaf Abbas Sharif. The MD said that the family sugar mill didn't employ even one Indian.
In 2015, Imran had made similar claims. He had alleged that Sharif had earned $60 million from "his business deals with India, including setting up of two new sugar mills".
But the family has constantly denied such reports. Earlier this year, Sharif's son Hussain Nawaz denied the family had any business partnership with Indian industrialists in any part of the world. He said that the family did not own any business in India either.
