The PTI chief, Imran Khan said the nation is standing by the Supreme Court in the current situation.
Talking to journalists at the Sukkur airport, he said that the government has refused to comply with the Supreme Court orders while protecting corruption of Asif Ali Zardari.
Calling President Asif Ali Zardari the “biggest thief”, Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan said that the government is sabotaging the courts in order to hide its “thefts”.
“The Supreme Court has issued contempt of court notice to the prime minister, because he did not fulfill his responsibilities.” Khan stated that only the Constitution is supreme and not the parliament. “If the parliament starts providing justice, then the courts should be shut down. Parliament has its own responsibilities, the courts have their own,” he said.
Reiterating his party’s support for the judiciary, Khan said that PTI is standing with the chief justice and the Supreme Court. Khan also dispelled rumours about forming an alliance with former dictator Pervaiz Musharraf’s party All Pakistan Muslim League (APML). “We are not ready for any alliances,” he stated.
The party chairman also said that the only way to bring the country out of the “quicksand” was by holding early elections.
To a question, he said Pakistani nation is ready to accept the martial law. The PML-N should quit the house if it is serous to oust this government.
