An amusing situation arose in the Pakistan Senate on Friday when during a session on terrorism, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) senator Dost Mohammad Khan said: “If you want to end terrorism, then release Imran Khan because he is an expert in terrorism.”
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Senator Irfan Siddiqui, who was presiding over the session in the absence of the Chairman Senate and his deputy, intervened to correct the PTI Senator’s statement, saying he probably meant that Imran Khan was an “expert in eliminating terrorism.”
However, Dost remained unaware of his slip of the tongue and responded: “You are from the opposing party; that’s why you are saying this, sir.”
After this, PTI leaders Shibli Faraz and Mohsin Aziz tried their best to clarify the situation with the PTI senator but were unsuccessful.
PTI’s Shibli Faraz tried to explain in Pashto but he too failed to convince Dost Muhammad Khan.
