Bilawal lambasts Imran, says Bushra Bibi's dreams won't hold in court.

ISLAMABD -- Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari Saturday slammed Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan and said that the ex-prime minister must be careful about what he says.

Bilawal, who holds the portfolio of foreign minister, lambasted the PTI chief after the former accused his father, PPP Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari, of hatching a plot to assassinate him with the help of terrorist organisations.

"Imran must realize every time his wife has a dream he cannot just come on tv and make accusations about people. Her dreams won't stand up in court," the minister said in a series of tweets.

Bilawal claimed that Khan's allegations had increased the threat to him and his family, especially given their history.

'After terrorist outfits called [me] and my party out by name in direct threats, Imran has now made false accusations against my father former president [Asif Zardari]."

"These statements increase threats to my father, my family and my part[y]. We take them seriously given our history," the foreign minister said.

Terming the accusations of the PTI chief 'dangerous,' he said that PPP was exploring legal responses to Khan's most recent accusations.

'We are exploring legal response to Imran latest defamatory and dangerous accusations. In the past, he threatened my father that he was 'in the crosshairs of his gun'."

"He and his associates' history as both sympathizers and facilitators of terrorists are well documented," the foreign minister said.

Reiterating his stance that Khan was unduly sympathetic to terrorists and extremists, Bilawal added: 'When in power, he released terrorists and arrested democrats, he handed over Pakhtunkhwa to terrorist organisation, his party funds terrorist groups to this day. All of this will be taken into account if any attack were to take place against myself, my father, or my party.'

In a virtual press conference on Friday Khan - who was ousted as the prime minister in April last year - claimed four people orchestrated a plan "behind closed doors" to assassinate him.

Khan alleged that now that the Wazirabad attack had failed, another plan was afoot. 'Asif Zardari is behind it. He has amassed a lot of money through corruption and he has invested that money in terrorists and hired a militant organisation.'
