Imran's party claims police held members before rally in Lahore

Friday, 20 September 2024 | PTI | lahore

Pakistan’s jailed former prime minister Imran Khan’s party on Thursday claimed that Punjab Police have launched a crackdown on the outfit, arresting dozens of its workers ahead of its planned power show in Lahore on Saturday.

“Police have detained Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) parliamentary leader in Punjab Assembly Ali Imtiaz Warraich, senior leader Afzal Phat and dozens of other party workers ahead of its power show at the ground of Minar-i-Pakistan, Lahore on Saturday (Sept 21),” PTI leader Ali Ijaz Butter said. He said despite “fascist tactics” by the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) government, the PTI would hold a historic rally in Lahore. PTI founder Khan has asked the masses to come out of their homes and participate in the Sept 21 rally. Quoting the jailed former premier, his official X handle on late Wednesday night posted, “I urge my nation to come out for the Lahore jalsa (rally) on Saturday with unwavering resolve and commitment. Resistance against this illegitimate government is a responsibility that every conscientious citizen must undertake. This is a battle for the survival of our future generations!”

 At a post at opportunity for the people of Punjab, especially Lahore, to support Khan “like they came out in droves on Feb 8 and voted for the candidates chosen by him”. It is high time that people should raise their voice for taking back their stolen mandate and the future of the younger generations, he said.
