'I'll be bound to stop long march if cabinet of coalition govt decides': Rana Sana Ullah

London: Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah on Thursday said he would be bound to stop the long march of PTI to Islamabad if the cabinet of coalition government decided the same way. 

Speaking to the media alongside other party leaders after the meeting, Sanaullah said: "Mian Nawaz Sharif guided us on the anarchy [the PTI wants to commit] and the people they plan to gather in Islamabad. 

But because this is a coalition government, we will put this matter (the march) in the cabinet and if it is decided that we can't allow them to come [to Islamabad] then forget two million, not even 20 people will come."

Sana Ullah said if decided against the long march even 20 people would not be able to reach the federal capital, adding he would implement on the decision taken by the cabinet.

Lashed out at the PTI, the interior minister said Imran Khan would not be allowed to spread "anarchy" in the country and there would be "zero tolerance" shown to the violators of the Constitution.

Asked if Imran would be arrested for allegedly likening the army chief with "Mir Jafar", Sana Ullah said all legal requirements would be fulfilled and if an arrest was warranted then it would be made.
