Imran Khan will unveil future course of action against coalition govt, says Fawad Chaudhry
The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) is all set to stage a “grand power show” in Lahore’s National Hockey Stadium to celebrate Pakistan’s “haqeeqi (real) freedom” on the eve of country’s 75th Independence Day.
Screens have been set-up in major cities across the country to live telecast the speech of Imran Khan.
Last week, party had shifted venue of its August 13 power show from Parade Ground in Islamabad to Lahore’s hockey stadium.
Since his ouster back in April, Imran has upped the ante against the ruling coalition. He repeatedly alleged that the US through the incumbent rulers removed him from the office of PM
This will be his first power show since the PTI secured a resounding victory in Punjab by-polls held in July.
Speaking to the reporters at the rally’s venue earlier today, PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry said ex-PM Imran would reveal the future course of action as the party’s “movement for real freedom has entered its final stage”.
Commenting on the raid on PML-N leader Ataullah Tarar’s house, he said the Punjab government would declare Tarar and Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah “wanted” if they did not appear before the investigation team formed to probe the crackdown launched against PTI leaders during the May 25 long march.
He also slammed former Punjab chief minister Hamza Shehbaz, saying “he fled to London despite serious money laundering charges against him”.
Fawad also hoped that PTI leader Shhahz Gill — who has been in judicial custody for passing controversial statements against the armed forces — would be granted bail on Monday.
