New UK petition says Imran Khan unfit to become Oxford University Chancellor

Petition highlights £190m case, FT allegations, corruption cases in Pakistan, and Khan’s statements on women, Taliban

LONDON: The University of Oxford has been told that former prime minister Imran Khan is trying to run for the institution’s Chancellor post to advance his personal and political goals and doesn’t have the university’s welfare at heart.

In a new petition, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) UK activist Khurram Butt has told the university that Khan wants to score political points by running a media campaign around the Chancellor’s election and will never serve the interests of the university.
