LAHORE: Lambasting the ousted prime minister Nawaz Sharif, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan asked “what was the need to amend the Khatm-e-Nabuwat (Finality of Prophethood) declaration and who was to be appeased through it.
He demanded the ruling party to explain what pressure was there to amend the law.
Speaking to a rally in Chishtian, the PTI chairman compared Nawaz Sharif with ‘traitors’ like Mir Jafar and Mir Sadiq.
“Nawaz only represents one ideology, which is corruption,” said Imran. “He is ready to destroy this country’s courts and military to save the Rs300 billion that he looted from this country.”
“Nawaz, you won’t be able to save the money you laundered out of Pakistan. We will bring it back to this country.”
The PTI leader also accused Nawaz’s political allies including Pakhtunkhwa Milli Awami Party Chief Mehmood Achakzai — who addressed a rally held by the former prime minister — for only holding on to the ideology of ‘corruption.’
“These people [Nawaz’s allies] are standing with him [Nawaz] because they are afraid that if Nawaz is caught and sentenced, then they are going to be the next.”
