ISLAMABAD, May 10 (SABAH): Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) President and Ameer Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) Maulana Fazlur Rehman has called for the elimination of elements who are responsible for burning public properties, encirclement of houses, and breaking doors of the General Headquarters (GHQ) since the arrest of Imran Khan in the Al-Qadir Trust case. Maulana Fazlur Rehman while terming attacks on GHQ and other national buildings by PTI as rebellion and has demanded of the government to lodge cases against the accused.

This was stated by Maulana Fazlur Rehman while addressing the inaugural session of the two-day long International Parliamentary Convention in connection with the Golden Jubilee of the Constitution of Pakistan and later on talking to media person outside the Parliament House on Wednesday. He further stated that any organisation trying to bring Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) back to power would also be guilty.

Maulana Fazlur Rehman reiterated Jamiat Ulma-e-Islam-Fazl’s (JUI-F) opinion about PTI being unnecessary elements of politics, PTI were unable to deliver a single development project in the past three and a half years. He added that destroying the state was on PTI’s agenda, which resulted in the division of society and immoral things being shared on social media.

He questioned why these kinds of people were made rulers and who would be accountable for the destruction caused by PTI.

The JUI-F long march, which had more than 1.5 million people, did not witness any burning or encirclement. JUI-F considered the institutions as their own, and he asked why PTI was damaging institutions and government property, declaring their actions rebellious.

Maulana Fazlur Rehman emphasised the importance of accountability without discrimination and staying within limits while disagreeing with institutions.

He stated that his viewpoint from the start was that Imran Khan is a foreign agent injected by foreign powers to destroy Pakistan, and he should be dealt with.

He also mentioned that the arrest of Imran Khan by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) was legal, and if someone disagrees with institutions, they should follow the proper channels instead of resorting to illegal actions.

Maulana Fazlur Rehman’s statement come after the recent arrest of Imran Khan by the NAB in the Al-Qadir Trust case.
