No link with Faiz, his accountability an internal matter of army: Imran
It is good that former DG ISI is being held accountable, but then hold them all accountable, stated PTI founder
Rawalpindi: Former Prime Minister and Founding Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan said that the issue of General Retired Faiz Hameed is an internal matter of Pakistan Army, he has nothing to do with the former Director General (DG) Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
In an informal conversation with journalists in Adiala Jail, PTI founder Imran Khan stated that the army is investigating Faiz Hameed, it is their internal matter, and what should I do with it. It is good that former DG ISI is being held accountable, but then hold them all accountable.
He added that there were reports of Intelligence Bureau (IB) that the current Speaker Punjab Assembly Malik Ahmed Khan used to meet General Bajwa all the time. He has nothing to do with Faiz Hameed's case.
The former prime minister continued to say that General Bajwa removed General Faiz at the behest of Nawaz Sharif and Shehbaz Sharif. I had a bitter conversation with General Bajwa over the removal of General Faiz Hameed. The Defense Minister has supported my position by talking about the extension of General Bajwa.
He further said that by not following the decision of reserved seats, they will violate the constitution for the third time. I am preparing the party for not giving reserved seats to PTI and violating the constitution.
Imran Khan also stated that the issue of Afghanistan was going on, so he did not want to remove General Faiz.
