Rawalpindi:
The founder of Pakistan Tehreek-E-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan, has promised not to bow, saying that any perception of his surrender is a “wrong concept.”
Speaking with the media outside the Adial prison after a judicial hearing in the Toshakhana 2.0 case on Wednesday, the sister of the founder of PTI, Aleema Khan, transmitted her message. She cited Imran saying: “Those who think they will break me are delusional. I will not accept slavery, no matter what does me.”
Imran has asked the entire nation to take to the streets on September 27, urging a generalized participation in what said it will be a decisive moment in Pakistan’s political resistance, he added.
Aleem also said, Imran is still challenging and critical of the current political order and quoted the founder of PTI saying that he tried to crush PTI by bringing amendment 26 to control the judiciary, dominate the media and strangle democracy.
According to her, Imran also warned that Pakistan has seen a drastic drop in foreign investment, and her debt has almost doubled. Imran believes that the country is directed by a dangerous path similar to Bangladesh, Sri Lanka or Nepal, he added.
Aleem said that Imran has instructed PTI to the leadership of a real opposition, warning of political irrelevance. “If you do not act now, you will be digging your own political tombs,” said the founder of PTI.
No to video link tests
By touching the video link procedures in the case of attack of the General Headquarters (GHQ), Aleema said: “The Punjab government and the Department of Origin want to isolate Imran Khan forcing a video link test. We completely reject it.”
She argued that Imran had rejected such arrangements even after surviving an attempt to murder, saying: “He insisted on being physically present in court. Now that he is in jail, they want to isolate him more under the pretext of a video link.”
The isolation, he said, avoids legal consultation and disconnects it from the family. “The goal is to silence it,” he added, warning that after Toshakhana’s trial, Imran and his wife Bushra Bibi can be subjected to prolonged solitary confinement.
Aleem also urged the legal community to join the 26th amendment, saying: “Imran Khan can be the focus today, but tomorrow could be any other person who faces these anti -democratic tools.”
He also talked about a recent incident in which two women allegedly threw eggs to the court outside the court. She said that both women were arrested by PTI workers and delivered to the police, but then released “under orders above.”
ATC orders that Imran Khan appears through a video link at the next audience
The founder of PTI, Imran Khan, has been ordered to appear through a video link from the Adial prison for the next hearing, since the Anti -Terrorist Court (ATC) postponed the GHQ attack case to October 1. The development occurred after the Punjab government formally withdrew its notification for holding a trial in the prison in the case.
Chaired by ATC Amjad Ali Shah judge, the court issued a summons for three witnesses to appear at the next hearing and instructed that Challan copies are distributed in another 11 cases of May 9 on the same day.
Another ATC has framed charges against 11 people arrested in the case of protest of November 26. ATC Tahir Abbas Supra judge held the hearing, during which the defendant declared himself innocent. The court postponed the procedures until September 24.
In the same case, PTI leaders remain on interim bail until November 13. The Police have presented the Challan of the arrested of 195 workers nominated in the case of the Secretariat Police Station, while 184 absent have already been declared criminals proclaimed by the Court.
