It’s not just two-legged beings that flock towards Imran Khan. As of last year, the Pakistan PM elect and cricket star, famous for his popularity with women, also owned four goats.
The animals were listed in a declaration of assets Khan submitted to the election commission last year.
Some etiquette while meeting world leaders can be quite strict, specific and even strange.
A guide to help you out...
As per the document, Khan owned nearly 1.4 billion Pakistan rupees (almost Rs 80 cr) worth of assets. A bulk of his wealth came from real estate.
And then, under the heading “furniture, fittings and articles of personal use” were four goats listed at approx Rs 1,12,000. Something to graze over while Khan ascends to the prime ministerial throne in the coming days.
Sold for: $643,900
Literally the skeleton of a mammoth is what went under the gavel at an auction in Lyon, France. The 15,000-year-old skeleton was purchased by a Strasbourgbased construction company Soprema for $643,900. Why? Because the company sells a coating product called Mammouth, or Mammoth in English. And seemingly they felt that an actual mammoth skeleton is perfect decoration for their reception lobby. "We are going to display it in the lobby of our firm," Pierre-Etienne Bindschedler, the CEO of Soprema, told newspapers after the purchase, adding, "I think we have enough room."
