Lahore: Asad Umar, a prominent leader of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has called on the government to focus its efforts on resolving the country's economic crisis rather than detaining innocent individuals.

وکلاء ٹیم کی انتھک محنت سے ہزاروں ورکرز کی رہائی ممکن ہوئ ہے۔ لیکن ابھی بھی بڑی تعداد میں بے گناہ لوگ زیر حراست ہیں۔ ان بے گناہ لوگوں کو بند رکھنے پر محنت کرنے کے بجائے حکومت کو اپنا وقت عوام کو سخت ترین معاشی تکلیف سے نکالنے پر لگانا چاہیے
