Senior lawyer and former Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Hamid Khan said that former Prime Minister Imran Khan confessed to committing blunders that cost PTI politically.
Hamid revealed that he had met Khan at the latter’s request. Speaking on Geo News show ‘Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath’, Hamid said that former Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi had brought Imran’s message to him. He said he agreed to see Khan along with former core members of the PTI.
“He showed up with an open heart and confessed that bohat si ghaltiyaan huvi hain [We have made a lot of mistakes]. And [these mistakes] have resulted in a loss for the party,” said Hamid.
Hamid said that Khan had admitted that his (Hamid Khan’s) stance and struggle against the establishment’s political role was right. He said Imran Khan had also admitted that he (Imran Khan) should have given importance to his (Hamid Khan’s) reservations about Jahangir Tareen and Aleem Khan.
Hamid said Khan also admitted that he was misled on Justice Qazi Faez Isa’s issue, adding that he had told Khan that the reference was a mistake because the judge was an honest man.
Earlier in April, Khan had admitted that the filing of a presidential reference for the removal of Supreme Court’s Justice Qazi Faez Isa was a mistake.
