British PM sacks Conservative Party Chairman Nadhim Zahawi from govt over his tax affairs

London: British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Sunday dismissed Chairman of his Conservative Party Nadhim Zahawi from the government after a probe into Zahawi's tax affairs found serious breach of ministerial code.

The UK government released the inquiry report by Sunak's ethics advisor, Laurie



Magnus.

Sunak had ordered investigation into former Chancellor's tax affairs amid demands from opposition to remove him.

Zahawi was facing allegations of settling a multimillion-dollar unpaid tax bill when was in charge of the country’s Treasury in Boris Johnson government.
