The latest documents of the Government of Jersey, Channel Islands, show that the PTI chief’s benaami offshore company Niazi Services Limited not only remained operational till October 1, 2015 but Imran Khan’s team also continued to file annual returns till February 2014 and paid a fee for filing returns.
The PTI in its official version claimed that Niazi Services Limited owned by Imran Khan has been dormant for long. The documents of Jersey Financial Services Commission (JFSC) officially obtained by The News show that the last Annual Return of Niazi Services Limited was filed on February 20, 2014.
Interestingly, Imran Khan’s team of accountants submitted the annual returns of Niazi Services Limited for the year 2013 on February 28, 2013, the JFSC documents reveal. However, the official documents of the Election Commission of Pakistan show that PTI chief Imran Khan filed his nomination papers on March 29, 2013.
The 2013 nomination papers of Imran Khan show that neither he declared his offshore company in asset statement nor mentioned his investment or capital of the company. The 2013 nomination papers show that Imran Khan even declared on oath in categorical terms that he didn’t own any company
