Peshawar: World powers may assassinate former prime minister and PTI chairman Imran Khan as they {powers} wanted to rule on Pakistan's foreign policy, former interior minister and Awami Muslim League president Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad claimed on Wednesday.

Talking to reporters in Peshawar, he said the ex-prime minister could either be assassinated or the "foreign powers" could have him imprisoned.

Rasheed said he was in Peshawar on the special invitation of Khan to attend the public meeting.

He made it clear that Khan would not bow down before the foreign powers as he berated the incumbent government for being "international beggars" due to whom Pakistanis abroad were burning their passports.

"The superpowers did not like Imran Khan's independent and impartial foreign policy," the AML president said, claiming that even the people of Pakistani did not want to see the faces of the current leaders.

The former interior minister lamented that the allies who enjoyed the luxury of ministries had turned against them as the breakaway of the allies had helped the incumbent government to come into power.

Rasheed added that he was "good friends" with MQM-P's leadership and hoped that they get something out of the current set-up.

Lambasting at the dissident MPs, he said: "How will the disgruntled people do politics in the future? Fly-by-night people do not stand with you when you need them the most."
