Cipher Case verdict: PTI labels the court’s decision ‘Sham Trial’

In its statement, PTI urged the public to come out and vote on February 8.

Pakistan Tehreek e Insaaf (PTI) reacts to the Cipher Case verdict terming it a ‘Sham Trial’.

On Tuesday, a special court established under the Official Secrets Act handed both PTI founder and former prime minister Imran Khan and ex-foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi 10 years in jail in the cipher case.

PTI official in a statement posted on the X platform, said that Pakistan stood with Imran and Qureshi “who defended Pakistan and stood for ‘*haqeeqi azadi’*”.

“No such sham trial can change what happened in March-April 2022, on the orders of Donald Lu,” the statement added.

“A complete mockery and disregard of the law in the cipher case shall not lead us to forget our primary responsibility in order to provide justice to IK and SMQ: vote and protect your vote on 8th!

In its statement, PTI urged the public to come out and vote on February 8.

“God willing kaptaan and vice kaptaan will be back soon, and this sentence will be (thrown) in the dustbin in the appeal stage,” the statement concluded.
