Dubai-based businessman Umar Farooq Zahoor has said that he was vindicated after PTI Chairman Imran Khan was found guilty of corruption, reported 24NewsHDTV channel.

Umar Farooq Zahoor had earlier said that Farah Gogi, friend of Imran Khan’s wife Bushra Bibi, had sold an expensive Graff wristwatch — gifted to former premier by Saudi Crown Prince Moham­mad Bin Salman — for $2 million, worth approximately Rs280 million at the time of sale in 2019.

In reaction to Imran Khan’s conviction and his subsequent arrest, Umar Farooq Zahoor in a tweet said “I am vindicated. Imran Khan found guilty of corruption. The court accepts my account that Imran Khan sold Graff watch to me for $2 million via Farah Gogi in Dubai. The court and evidence confirmed my facts.”
