Deserters try to convice Qureshi to quit PTI
In a bid to change, what sources claimed, the loyalty of detained Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Vice-Chairman Shah Mahmood Qureshi the party’s key deserters met him in Adiala jail on Wednesday.
A delegation of PTI defectors comprising the party’s bigwigs Fawad Chaudhry, Imran Ismail, Mahmood Moulvi and Aamir Kiani met Qureshi in the prison and tried to convince him to part ways with the deposed prime minister, who was removed from office via a vote of no-confidence in April last year, the well-placed sources confirmed.

PTI leader, Fawad Ch said that 250 million people could not be left at the mercy of component parties of the Pakistan Democratic Movement led by Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
“250 million people can’t be left at the mercy of [Pakistan Peoples Party co-chairman] Asif Ali Zardari and [Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz supremo] Nawaz Sharif,” he added.
Fawad, flanked by former PTI leaders Ismail and Moulvi, said “We believe that [legal] action against the people involved in May 9 incidents will move forward as per the law.”
