A day after veteran Sindh politician Irfanullah Marwat announced joining Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), Bakhtawar Bhutto Zardari, daughter of Asif Ali Zardari, called the former provincial minister a sick man.
Marawat, a senior leader of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), met Asif Zardari at Bilawal House yesterday and announced his decision to join the PPP.
In response to a tweet about Marwat joining the PPP, Bakhtawar Bhutto said that he should be rotting in a jail cell somewhere instead.

“Sick man should be rotting in a jail cell somewhere not coming anywhere near #PPP. Party that was led by a woman will not tolerate such ppl,” she said.
Bakhtawar’s angry outburst came after a Twitter user shared a 1991 news report which claimed that Marwat was behind the gang rape of a Karachi woman to punish her for her links to Bhutto family.

Marwat had denied the accusations.
Aseefa also joined her sister in disapproving of Marwat, saying, " Mr Irfanullah Marwat should not be in PPP"
