The former Pak PM has been embroiled in legal trouble for buying gifts, including an expensive Graff wristwatch he had received as the premier at a discounted price from the state depository called Toshakhana and selling them for profit.
The cricketer-turned-politician was disqualified by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) over “false statements and incorrect declaration” for buying gifts, including an expensive Graff wristwatch, a pair of cufflinks, an expensive pen, a ring, and four Rolex watches that he had received as prime minister at a discounted price and selling them for profit, reported News18.

Khan’s ouster as Prime Minister came in April 2022, after the National Assembly passed a no-confidence motion against him. The PTI chief came to power in 2018 and he is the only Pakistani PM to be ousted in a no-confidence vote in Parliament.
