KP CM Gandapur says getting Imran Khan freed from jail is PTI’s duty

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Chief Minister (CM) Ali Amin Gandapur said on Saturday that Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Justice Yahya Afridi represented the entire nation, represented 24NewsHD TV channel.

In an interview with 24News TV channel, he said that it was his as well as his party’s duty to get former prime minister and PTI founder Imran Khan released from jail. “And right now we are focusing on it.”

Gandapur said that Imran’s wife Bushra Bibi not only had issues with her ears but also with her teeth. “She is an apolitical person. She does not interfere in politics,” he said.

KP CM said that this time when the PTI workers would come out on roads to protest, they would not only block Islamabad, but the entire country.

He accused the Islamabad Police of taking the law into their own hands and levelling baseless allegations against the PTI. “We will not tolerate it,” he said categorically.
