Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan on Saturday hoped that former prime minister and his party founder Imran Khan would be released from prison in the “near future”.
Addressing a public gathering in Swabi, he termed the power show as “referendum” against the “mandate-stealing government”.
The PTI chairman said that they would take to the streets for the release of the incarcerated former prime minister.
Expressing his grief over the Balochistan explosion, Gohar asked: “How the politics will move forward and peace be restored while keeping the PTI founder behind bars.”
He further said that they were strengthening the country’s judiciary.
Addressing the gathering, KP Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur vowed to secure release of the PTI founder, saying that they are even ready to “sacrifice their lives” for this purpose.
“Even if our lives are lost, we will not rest until the release of PTI founder,” he roared at a public gathering organised by the PTI in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Swabi for the “independence of judiciary” and to demand the release of incarcerated PTI leader.
Addressing the PTI supporters, the CM said: “There is no freedom without sacrifice.” The chief minister said that they had to give sacrifice for “true freedom”.
Referring to the decision-making bodies within the former ruling party, the firebrand chief minister said: “Only Imran Khan has the power to make decision in the party.”
