Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Nabil Gabol has claimed that the government was exaggerating the death toll from the new coronavirus to receive compensation from the global health agency.
Speaking during an interview with a private TV channel, Gabol said the government was faking coronavirus deaths because it signed an agreement with World Health Organisation (WHO) under which the affected family would receive $3,000 per casualty from the health body.
“Those who died from kidney issues and heart attack are also being counted in coronavirus death toll. This is happening because the affected family will get $3,000 from WHO,” he said.
He even went on to say that WHO has signed the agreement with all the coronavirus-hit countries not only with Pakistan. The PPP leader has received stiff criticism for the erroneous claim and spreading the conspiracy theory.
Earlier, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Khurram Sherzaman had alleged that PPP-led government in Sindh was faking and manipulating the covod-19 death toll of the province.
The deadly coronavirus has claimed 733 lives in Pakistan, while 8,812 patients have recovered successfully and have been discharged from the hospitals.
