LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman and former prime minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, on Saturday asked the party workers and supporters to prepare for the “Jail Bharo” movement across the country.
Imran Khan’s comments come in the wake of sedition cases filed against PTI’s Senior Vice-President, Fawad Chaudhry, and former member of the National Assembly, Shandana Gulzar. PTI leader Shahbaz Gill and Senator Azam Swati were arrested earlier for speaking against the military.
PTI chief says he fears for Pakistan’s economy
During his televised address, Imran Khan said his party could have opted for a countrywide strike but would choose to fill the prisons instead because of the fears that the country’s economy might deteriorate further.
