Fact-Check: Have Imran Khan’s sons joined Twitter?
Claim:
Twitter accounts of both the sons of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan have emerged on the micro-blogging site with usernames @SulemanIsaKhan and @kasimkhanreal. Many people are sharing tweets from the accounts, believing them to be Qasim and Suleman Khan.
Fact:
However, the screenshots of the accounts are fake, as are the accounts themselves.
Imran Khan’s ex-wife and mother of his sons, Jemima Goldsmith, has confirmed that both accounts are imposters.
“Fake accounts pretending to be my children, created by imposters with a political agenda in Pakistan. This is exactly what I feared would happen when you took away Twitter’s verification blue ticks. FYI my children are not on social media & have no plans to be,” she wrote in a tweet.
Verdict: The verdict is false.
