Imran Khan assigns Arif Alvi important responsibility
Incarcerated Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan has assigned Dr Arif Alvi important responsibility, revealed party’s Secretary General Omar Ayub Khan on Thursday.
Omar Ayub addressing a press conference flanked by former president Dr Arif Alvi, outside the Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi, said: “The PTI founder has assigned important responsibility to Arif Alvi [during his maiden meeting with Khan after leaving the Presidency].”
Alvi said: “The PTI founder is ready to render [more] sacrifices [for the country]”
Without disclosing the nature of the “importance responsibility” the former president said: “I have received instructions from the PTI founder.”
Lamenting on the police crackdown against the PTI leadership in the backdrop of the May 9 mayhem, Alvi added: “Some people of the PTI might be involved [in May 9 violence] but the entire party was crashed.”
Alvi further added that their mandate was stolen in the February 8 general elections and that they had evidence about it.
The former president termed the PML-N-led coalition government a product of “Form 47”.
While responding to a question about the ISPR’s presser, Dr Arif Alvi said: “I also stated yesterday that the wrongdoer should ask for pardon, not the oppressed.”
