PTI was fighting the real war of liberation against those who ‘robbed the country’: Imran Khan


CHARSADDA, May 29 (SABAH): Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insasf (PTI) Chairman and former prime minister Imran Khan on Sunday once again criticised the incumbent coalition government and alleged that it was going to recognise Israel.

“This government will strike a deal with India to sell the people of Kashmir, and to top it off, they are also going to accept Israel,” Imran Khan said while addressing the PTI workers’ convention in Charsadda, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Berating the coalition government, Imran Khan said that while it “conspired” with the Americans to remove him from power, the people of Pakistan would never accept an “imported government” that has been imposed on them.

“We will not accept these thieves and slaves of the United States,” he said, adding that the PTI was fighting the real war of liberation against those who “robbed the country.”

Speaking about the violent clashes between PTI workers and the police during the party’s “Azadi March,” Imran Khan said that two of his workers — one from Lahore and the other one from Mardan — lost their lives while fighting for the country’s independence. “As long as I am alive, I will not end my struggle and jihad against these thieves,” Imran Khan said.

The former premier censured the government for using force against PTI workers who took to the streets against the alleged foreign conspiracy and said that the Supreme Court had allowed the PTI to protest peacefully as a democratic right but the government tried to sabotage it.

“Listen, Shehbaz Sharif, Hamza and Rana Sanaullah, we will go to court and we will prosecute you and will make sure to throw your corrupt” Imran Khan warned. “Male police, following your orders, also invaded homes to disrespect the privacy of women.”

He also condemned how the police attacked the vehicle of former Punjab health minister Dr. Yasmin Rasheed.

Imran Khan also criticised the government for increasing the prices of petroleum products and said that the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is also controlled by the United States. “They have hiked petrol prices because of IMF’s insistence,” he said, adding that the PTI will take to the streets once again to protest against the government.

He said that the real war of independence is jihad, as long as he is alive the struggle against thieves will continue ongoing and now no one will be able to stop this time. Imran Khan said, “we will never accept the U.S. slavery and we are out to fight a real war of liberation against thieves, when a nation fights for freedom it is jihad.”

The former PM further said that PTI’s workers have been martyred in the war of independence and they were all for the freedom of the country, adding that peaceful protest was our democratic right.

While lashing out at current government, he said that American slaves have increased the price of petrol while India bought cheap oil from Russia and reduced prices, India is free but we [Pakistanis] are slaves.

PTI supremo further added that Pakistani delegation has gone to Israel today and When the American slaves sit on the top, they will do whatever order is given, adding that they will sell Kashmir by compromising with India. “The current government is now going to recognize Israel ,” Imran Khan claimed.
