In a rather ambitious development, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Wednesday announced that its injured party leader Imran Khan would attend the May 9 Islamabad rally, which was earlier cancelled following the PTI leader’s hospitalisation.
A PTI spokesman said the public gathering would be held as scheduled with the active participation of Imran Khan who suffered head and back injuries after falling down from a height of 10-14 feet while a fork lifter was hoisting him up to a stage set for a rally.
However, talking to a private channel, the spokesman said Imran Khan’s addressing the Islamabad rally was contingent upon his condition. He said if the doctors did not deem Imran Khan as fit to travel then he might speak to the gathering via video-link.
