In a tweet uploaded on Monday, PM Shehbaz Sharif maintained that the Government of Pakistan fully respects and is committed to all its constitutional and international obligations on human rights.

The prime minister regretted that PTI Chairman Imran Khan in his interviews with international media outlets is openly and deliberately misinforming local and foreign audiences by glib talk laced with fake news and plain misrepresentation.
