ISLAMABAD: A new black bullet-proof Prado worth around Rs16 million has landed in the country for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan.

Party sources told The News the PTI chief had opted for a new vehicle in view of security reasons and to cope with his hectic schedule after the party continued to embrace “electables” from diverse political shades.

The vehicle, which was bought on Thursday and yet to be formally registered, has arrived at his sprawling Bani Gala residence with an “applied for” tag.

This correspondent tried to contact party secretary general Dr Arif Alvi, who was not available. Nor did he respond to the text message.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf finance secretary Azhar Tariq, when approached, expressed his total ignorance to it.

But he said someone had gifted a Suzuki Carry to the party central secretariat to facilitate some staffers’ movement in connection with the office-related matters.

“I have no idea about the party chairman having purchased a new vehicle.

But what I can say categorically is that if it has been bought, it has been bought not from the party’s fund, as there is no such provision in the rules,” he maintained.

Party sources revealed the new vehicle purchase coincides with an unexpected decision by Imran Khan to set up his office (central secretariat) at his residence here, which is being seen by some old campaigners of the party as a security precaution move.

This article is contradictory.
Earlier:
Party sources told The News the PTI chief had opted for a new vehicle in view of security reasons

Then:

“I have no idea about the party chairman having purchased a new vehicle.

I trust the finance secretary....

 

[Awesome]

Good, although the Bullet proof, bomb proof Musharraf S-500 is a proven car. Prado is a higher car and may tip over blocking his escape.

There should also be three such cars so he can follow Musharraf's protocol by selecting the car himself at the last minute

 

[A.Muqeet khan]

you trust you what you want to trust its so simple as that ! just as u listen to what you want to listen ther is no rocket science in this

 

[ice_man]

even before coming to power he is buying bullet proof parados? i guess next step will be speeches behind bullet proof glass i hate the way this is going!

Good decision by Imran Khan. It is always good to be safe than sorry. Most of attacks on people are when they are in their car or near it. So it is good Imran Khan has decided to buy the ultimate defense with a bullet/bomb proof vehicle. Life is irreplaceable, money and cars are on the other hand replaceable:

Well PTI's spoke person , Shafqat Mehmood , has denied this report and said :

"A new propaganda is that Chairman Imran Khan (official) has imported a bullet proof Prado. Not true. He borrows one for those events where security is an issue" Shafqat Mahmood (PTI Central Information Secretary)

That W-140 S500 mercedes Benz is the best car in the world, I can testify to it.
It is stable and solid as a rock !

Well yeah but you need to armor it to protect the passengers from IEDs and attackers spraying it with bullets.

If Imran Khan bought it with his own money than no one should say anything about him but to relate with people he should avoid it

Not All Sir not everyone is corrupt or foreign agent Imran Khan is an honest person and no one can doubt that

Well he's been in politics for so long, I am sure this isn't his first one!

He has got it using his own personal money, so no one should object to him. Anyone can go and buy such a vehicle if he wants to feel safe and has the money. Safety comes first, and these cars are really good to make insurgents, murderers and kidnappers defeated. These cars use state of the art technologies and can withstand bullets, rockets and explosives. To see how solid these are look at this video wherein US special forces get their hands on a bullet proof BMW in Iraq and try to open its door without a key:

Not at all, he is actually a new comer and has never held any important office. But he is rich since he was a first class cricketer and his rich ex-wife had gifted him large sum of money. So it is his money and he can do whatever he wants with it.

The guy potentially is the key we all hope sticks our country back together - he must be protected from potential threats in particular extremists. Im pleased he has taken this action. In fact more should be done to protect him
