Imran's party accepted illegal donations: ECP

ISLAMABAD, Aug 2 (AFP): Pakistan's ex-premier Imran Khan's party accepted millions of dollars in illegal funds from foreign individuals and groups, the election commission ruled Tuesday.
The case dates back to 2014 when a disgruntled founding member of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) filed a case against his party leadership accusing it of financial irregularities.
The Election Commission Pakistan (ECP) found that Khan's party concealed 16 bank accounts and accepted donations from foreigners or foreign groups based in Australia, Canada, the UAE and the Cayman Islands.
Pakistani law bars political parties from receiving funds and donations from foreign individuals and companies.
The commission also said that financial details submitted by Khan were "found to be grossly inaccurate".
