LAHORE > Months after the leaked excerpts of her all-tell biography’s manuscript sent shock waves across Pakistan, Imran Khan’s former wife Reham Khan’s book finally came out on Thursday.
The ex-wife of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman writes in depth about her 10-month marriage, detailing the political atmosphere and the leaders in the South Asian country.
The scandal-filled book, which is available on Amazon, an electronic commerce company, hit the shelves with more shocking stories than anticipated, especially in the chapters dedicated to her ten-month long marriage with Imran Khan, who has strong chances of becoming prime minister after July 25 elections.
The 45-year-old journalist and former BBC World weather girl claimed that the cricketer-turned-politician had been showing interest in pre-marriage meetings with her intended at conducting interviews as he usually asked about her age and admired her.
Sharing her experience of one of her meeting with the PTI chief at Bani Gala before marriage, she stated that she was attacked by huge mosquitoes and scratching her feed when he emerged from the bedroom. She added, “He now had a glint in the eyes as he looked straight into mine. Flustered by his penetrating gaze, I looked away and explained that I was covered in mosquito bites. The next thing I knew, his huge hands had grabbed my ankles protectively but gently, as if to sooth the insect bites. I jumped in my chair at this unexpected, yet tender gesture from him. He leant forward as if to kiss miss, then groaned and got to his feet”.
He took her to the garden and said, ” I want to marry you,” Reham explained, adding that she responded as “Are you totally insane?”.
Besides describing the whole story from Khan’s flirt and kissing attempts to dispute over a dancing video, she at one place revealed that the cricket celebrity touched her knee seeking forgiveness for taking her wrong.
Girls Abortion in London
Reham, in the book, claimed that women are exploited within the PTI. She alleged that a close friend of the PTI chief had to make a girl to undergo an abortion. When Imran Khan was accused of it, he rejected the allegations in public.
The former BBC journalist further wrote, “Months later, however, I was being told by Imran Khan himself that it had actually happened”.
