In the timespan of 22 whole years, our beloved Khan sahib got married two times, and unfortunately, none of the matrimonies bonded amidst confines of a legal institution were successful. It has been four days since news of the PTI Chairman’s “secret” third marriage made headlines and floated everyone’s boat far and wide. While some Imran Khan fans wished him blessings for his new life ahead, many people criticised this act of him in their own personal ways, many of which were members of his own political party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
Just recently, Imran Khan has finally broken silence on his rumoured marriage to Bushra Maneka in a series of sensitive tweets that put forth the matter in front of the larger audience:
1. For 3 days I have been wondering have I looted a bank; or money laundered bns in nation’s wealth; or ordered a model-town-like killing spree; or revealed state secrets to India? I have done none of these but discovered I have committed a bigger crime: wanting to get married.

2. The vicious, gutter media campaign led by NS & MSR mafia does not bother me as respect & humiliation come from Allah Almighty.
— Imran Khan (@ImranKhanPTI) January 9, 2018
3. However, my concern is for my children & the very conservative family of Bushra begum, all of whom have been subjected to this malicious campaign by NS & MSR.
— Imran Khan (@ImranKhanPTI) January 9, 2018
4. NS & MSR can rest assured that their vicious campaign has only strengthened my resolve to fight them all the way.

5. I have known the Sharifs for 40 years and I know all their sordid personal lives but I would never stoop to the level of exposing these sordid details.
— Imran Khan (@ImranKhanPTI) January 9, 2018
6. All I ask of my well wishers and supporters is that they pray I find personal happiness which, except for a few years, I have been deprived of.

It didn’t end here. Social media retorted as quickly as he did, to his tweets:
