Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed on Sunday said that Prime Minister Imran Khan is fighting a war with mafia to provide better living standards to the poor segments of Pakistan.

According to the details, while addressing media today, Sheikh Rashid Ahmed said that the government will fulfill its promise to bring to light the truth by unmasking all mafia and take strict action against them.

He said that Imran Khan is fighting against the mafia which is creating inflation for the poor. Adding that Pakistan’s economy is improving.

Interior Minister said that Prime Minister will not allow anyone to go against public interest and mint money through graft.

He also added that the sugar scandal and money laundering are subjects of Shahzad Akbar. He would be in a better position to answer that.
