Imran is planning the prison-led protest, sons to attend after return from us

Pakistan Tehreek-E-Insaf (PTI) Foundation Chairman Imran Khan intends to lead a protest movement from prison against the 26th constitutional change, while his sons Sulaiman and Qasim will take part in the campaign after returning from the United States, his sister Aleema Khan said on Tuesday.

In a speech with journalists outside Adiala Prison, Aleema conveyed the imprisoned former Prime Minister’s message to supporters and claimed he remained determined despite lonely inclusion and harsh prison.

“He [Imran Khan] Said he is free in prison while outside they are imprisoned, “she said, adding,” People have to come out for themselves, for democracy, for the rule of law and against the 26th amendment. Anyone who cannot carry the weight of this movement must go to side now. “

Imran, she said, had asked for the protest movement to reach its peak on August 5 – the date, which will mark two years ago his prison.

“After the 26th change, all public rights have been effectively taken away,” she added, noting that their entire family would take part in the campaign, while former Prime Minister sons will participate in the campaign after returning from the United States.

“Imran Khan’s sons, Qasim and Sulaiman, will first go to the United States to raise awareness of the injustices that their father is facing, and then they will participate in the movement launched in Pakistan. Imran Khan has been informed of this,” he said.

Aleema, accompanied by her sisters Noreen and Uzma, said she had been denied access to her brother, though other family members were eventually allowed to meet him. She expressed concern about his treatment in custody and described it as unprecedented.

“What is done against him is unlike the treatment of any other prisoner. He has been denied access to television, newspapers and reading material for a week. His books are in the Vicerator’s room,” she said.

She added that the PTI founder has been held in lonely inclusion and has not been allowed to see her doctor for the past ten months. “They think they can break him. But they can’t,” she said, adding that she had been prevented from meeting him herself.

Earlier in the day, dozens gathered by PTI supporters at Gorakhpur checkpoint as Khan’s sisters tried to go towards prison. Police quotas were deployed and party workers raised slogans. PTI -General Secretary Salman Akram Raja was also present on the spot.

While Aleema was stopped near a local hotel and was not allowed to continue, other family members eventually gained access. The former first lady Bushra Bibi was also allowed to meet his sister -in -law Mehrunnisa.

However, according to party sources, Barrister Gohar, Salman Safdar and Zahoor Abbas Chaudhry were allowed to meet former prime minister.

In a speech with journalists before the prison meeting, Safdar said the visit was as important as anyone earlier. When asked why the legal team had not been able to secure relief despite over 700 days after IMRAN’s detention, he said, “We are fighting for the cases in courts and doing our best.”
