ISLAMABAD – The confessions of a Dubai-based Pakistani businessman about the Toshakhana gifts allegedly sold by former Pakistani prime minister Imran Khan at a throwaway price have brought this scandal into the limelight once again.
Dubai-based businessman Umar Farooq told Geo News on Tuesday that Farah Gogi and Shahzad Akbar allegedly sold to him an expensive Graff wristwatch worth Rs2 billion gifted by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to Khan, for 7.5 million Dirhams in cash.
According to Farooq, he got an appraisal of the gifts done from the company which makes these gifts and came to know that the "real value" of the Graff unique set was around USD 12 million.
The set included:
