As the police arrived at Zaman Park to arrest the former prime minister, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan urged the party’s members and supporters to continue the fight for “true freedom,”
The PTI leader urged the country to be firm and fight for “Haqeeqi Azadi (genuine freedom) and rule of law” in a video message posted on Twitter.
Imran Khan urged the party members and followers to show the current leaders “wrong” by pointing out that the government thinks the country “won’t respond” if he is detained. The former premier told the nation, “You [the nation] have to prove that we are a living nation,” calling on them to continue their fight for genuine independence and leave their homes. He added that he would keep fighting for the Rule of Law to rule supreme.
He said that the country will never accept the “worst slavery of thieves.” “They put me in jail or kill me, but you [the people] have to prove the authorities wrong that you can struggle without Imran Khan,” he stated.
It is important to note that PTI supporters had congregated outside Imran Khan’s Zaman Park mansion in Lahore when the Islamabad police used water cannons and tear gas to disperse them.
The cops arrived in Lahore to make an arrest.
In the Toshakhana reference, the court of ADSJ Zafar Iqbal reinstated Imran’s non-bailable arrest warrants. It told the police to detain the PTI leader and bring him before a judge by March 18.
The spokesperson for the Islamabad police stated in a statement that they had traveled to Lahore in response to court orders to arrest the PTI leader.
PTI leader Hammad Azhar on Sunday afternoon issued a call to all party members to report to Zaman Park in Lahore and maintain peace in response to reports of the detention.
