Imran says President Alvi will discuss army chief's appointment with him
The Prime Minister's Office has already received the summary containing names of six senior generals for the selection of top slots
Former prime minister and PTI Chairman said on Wednesday that he was in contact with President Dr Arif Alvi over next army chief’s appointment.
Speaking to a private channel, Khan said: “I am in touch with the president. He will discuss everything with me."
The PTI chief said the matter was very simple as there are principles of seniority. "The army knows which people of its are capable, but the people who will choose and appoint them … the big corrupt mafia … I doubt their intentions and not the person who will be appointed.
“We don’t know who they will appoint but the president and I have decided that we will play [with this] within the law and do whatever is in law and Constitution.”
When asked if the matter can be taken to the Supreme Court, Imran replied: “I can’t say.”
The Prime Minister's Office has already received the summary containing names of six senior generals for the selection of top slots -- COAS and CJCSC.
