When talking to media outside Islamabad High Court (IHC), PTI Senator Cited Ali Zafar Imran Khan to say he was ready to hold conversations in national interest. He said many PTI lawyers visit Adiala prison for meeting with Imran Khan. He said Salman Akram Raja’s comments regarding meeting with the PTI founder have raised a new controversy.
