In his latest political U-turn, the founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan, has forbidden undercover PTI leaders from coming out and getting arrested, after he told them to “stop fearing” and get arrested just two days earlier.
“The undercover leaders should come out and make arrests, face whatever charges are against them, get bails from courts,” he had said earlier in the week.
However, the former Prime Minister has now told journalists in Adiala Jail, “If they come out now, they will be picked up, so they shouldn’t come out yet.”
He criticised the government for accusing PTI of bringing Taliban back from Afghanistan to Pakistan, saying, “Is PTI responsible for the terrorism in Balochistan too?”
Imran Khan further asked, “Whose responsibility is to stop terrorism in Kacha?”
He stated that PTI condemns all kinds of terrorism and confirmed that the party will hold a rally on September 8 in Islamabad.
