Imran plans protest directed by jail, children to join after returning from us

The founding president of Pakistan Tehreek-E-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan, intends to lead a protest movement from the prison against the 26th constitutional amendment, while their children Sulaiman and Qasim will join the campaign after returning from the United States, said his sister Aleem Khan.

Speaking to journalists outside the Adiala prison, Aleema transmitted the message of former prime minister to supporters, claiming that he remained resolved despite the lonely confinement and the harsh conditions of the prison.

“He [Imran Khan] He said he is free from jail inside, while outside are imprisoned, “he said, adding:” People must leave themselves, for democracy, by the rule of law and against the 26th amendment. Anyone who cannot support the weight of this movement should be put aside now. “

Imran, he said, had asked the protest movement to reach its maximum point on August 5, the date that will mark two years since its imprisonment.

“After the 26th amendment, all public rights have been effectively eliminated,” he added, noting that his whole family would participate in the campaign, while former Prime Minister will join the campaign after returning from the United States.

“The children of Imran Khan, Qasim and Sulaiman, first will go to the United States to raise awareness about the injustices faced by their father, and then participate in the movement that is being thrown into Pakistan. Imran Khan has been informed of this,” he said.

Aleema, accompanied by her sisters Noreen and Uzma, said she had denied access to her brother, although other family members were finally allowed to meet him. She expressed concern about her treatment in custody, describing him as unprecedented.

“What is being done is different from the treatment of any other prisoner. He has been denied access to television, newspapers and reading material for a week. His books are in the room of the attached superintendent,” he said.

He added that the founder of PTI has been arrested in solitary confinement and has not been allowed to see his doctor during the last ten months. “They think they can break it. But they can’t,” he said, adding that she had also forbidden to meet him.

Early in the day, dozens of PTI supporters gathered at the control point of Gorakhpur when Khan’s sisters tried to walk towards prison. Police contingents were deployed and party workers raised slogans. PTI’s secretary general, Salman Akram Raja, was also present at the scene.

While Aleem stopped near a local hotel and was not allowed to continue, other family members finally received access. Former first lady Bushra Bibi was also allowed to meet her sister -in -law Mehrunnisa.

Separately, the police arrested the focal person of Pti Niazullah Niazi and Mna Munawra Baloch at Dahgal’s control point. Senator Faisal Javed and lawyer Zahoor Abbas Chaudhry were also denied entry into Gorakhpur.

However, according to party sources, lawyer Gohaha, Salman Safdar and Zahoor Abbas Chaudhry were later allowed to meet with former prime minister.

Speaking to journalists before the prison meeting, Safdar said the visit was as significant as the previous one. When asked why the legal team had not been able to ensure relief despite more than 700 days of detention of Imran, he said: “We are fighting the cases in court and doing everything possible.”
