Imran Khan vacates Pakan PM’s official residence before trust vote outcome

Imran Khan vacated the Prime Miner’s official residence minutes before he lost a crucial no-confidence vote in the National Assembly, a senior leader from his Pakan Tehreek-e-Insaf party said on Sunday.
After Speaker Asad Qaiser handed over the reins to Pakan Muslim League-Nawaz’s Ayaz Sadiq of the National Assembly, it became clear that the vote on the no-confidence motion would go ahead in the lower house.

The Opposition’s no-trust motion against Khan succeeded an hour past midnight on Sunday, with 174 members in the 342-strong house voting in favour of the motion.
It meant that the 69-year-old cricketer-turned-politician would have to leave the Prime Miner’s Office.
PTI’s Senator Faisal Javed Khan tweeted that he saw off Khan from his official state residence.

“Just saw off Prime Miner Imran Khan from Prime Miner House. He walked out gracefully and didn’t bow down. He has lifted the entire Nation,” tweeted Faisal.
Khan has left the PM Office for his residence in Banigala, The Express Tribune newspaper reported.
