Karachi,(Parliament Times): Arrest of Imran Khan from court premises is not appropriate and it would spread anarchy, said Pasban Democratic Party (PDP) Chairman Altaf Shakoor on Tuesday. He said in our country maltreatment of elected prime ministers is an old tradition. He said arrest by pulling from the collar is not appropriate. He said every government takes political vendetta. It happened also in Imran Khan’s government. However, some one must end this bad tradition. Altaf Shakoor has said that Imran Khan when he was the Prime Minister freely used the NAB against his political opponents and he was arrested by the same NAB. He said arresting political leaders on a vendetta basis would not be in the larger interest. of the nation and country. He said Imran Khan and his political party must also show restraint and adopt legal ways against this arrest.
He said filing of 150 FIRs in different town’s shows weakness of law and the relevant institutions must do the needful. He said the PDP strongly condemns politics of vendetta. He said peaceful protest is the right of every political party but hooliganism, riots and road closures could never be justified. He said negative propaganda against the armed forces after this arrest is just baseless. He said PTI workers should refrain from it. He said Pakistan has already been facing different challenges on local and international fronts and a politics of reconciliation should be preferred to the politics of vendetta.
