The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) will descend upon the Punjab IG office if the police does not arrest the men that killed PTI workers, PTI Chairman Imran Khan said on Thursday.
Addressing a press conference at the PTI Secretariat, Imran Khan said that the party had no expectation of free and fair elections in the presence of Justice(r) Riaz Kayani and the deployment of the army at all polling stations was a must.
Imran Khan said that PML-N was targeting political opponents in connivance with the police as promoting terrorism, and supporting and encouraging hooligans, was what PML-N was all about.
He said looters of the country were at liberty to loot people because they knew that they would not be put behind bars. Nawaz Sharif, Asif Ali Zardari, Asfandyar Wali and Fazlur Rehman created a union when NAB started to investigate one senator in KP. “Zardari cried over the issue in London and Fazlur Rehman termed the investigation a danger for democracy, but they should know that democracy is the name of accountability,” he added.
He asked what could be expected for justice if there was a Law Minister like Rana Sanaullah, whose friend has also given a statement in an anti-terrorism court that he had killed men on Sanaullah’s instructions.
Khan said that his party had sacrificed a lot for democracy as was obvious when PML-N and the police killed eight to nine people during the sit-ins. He said that a transparent system of accountability had been introduced in KP, where even a minister was arrested during the LG elections and another minister was in police custody because of corruption charges. He added that KP is at the top when it comes to functionality.
Khan claimed that the KP chief minister was not interfering in police matters but in Punjab, the SHOs were being inducted in police stations under PML-N’s will.
He asked what could be expected from Punjab police where the brother of the Punjab IG was victorious unopposed in LG elections. He said that there was no difference between the police and PML-N.
