PMD chief and JUI-F Amir Fazlur Rehman Wednesday demanded resignations that PTI Chairperson Imran Khan and President Dr Arif Alvi should step down following the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP’s) verdict on the PTI’s foreign funding case.
“Not only Imran Khan is a criminal but the whole party constitutes criminals,” said Fazl while speaking at a press conference in the federal capital.
He said all the coalition parties had urged the Commission to take action against the PTI and all those involved in this case.
Fazl said that the members should be arrested and those four employees who received the funding in their accounts should be investigated.
“This is now the matter of survival of the state and everyone responsible should stand together to save Pakistan,” he added.
The PDM chief said that the verdict had proved that Khan was a “foreign agent with a foreign agenda,” who has taken help from India, Israel, America, Canada, and Finland. “Imran Khan was putting pressure on the ECP; however, the Commission refused to be blackmailed. The Election Commission is an institute and its facts cannot be denied,” said Fazl.
He added that the details were provided to the ECP by the State Bank of Pakistan during PTI’s tenure.
He called for swift proceedings against Imran Khan and his party, demanding that the “PTI should be made an example of”.
The PDM chief said that all the political parties had decided to initiate action against Imran and his party as they were now “proven criminals”.
PTI Chairman Imran Khan on Wednesday asked if the country could be held back for the appointment of the army chief, a private TV channel reported.
In an interview with a private TV channel, Imran Khan suggested that instead of thinking about what will happen in November, the focus should be on bringing stability back to Pakistan. “We have to choose […] do we want stability or a new army chief?” he said in response to a question, adding that while the army has played an important part in the country’s national security, economic stability was equally important. “Right now, the more important issue than the army chief’s appointment is stability and only one thing can bring that – elections,” Imran said, highlighting that the aim should be to prevent Pakistan from falling into a place where “things go out of hand”.
