Defence Minister Khawaja Asif asserted on Tuesday that Imran Khan’s numerous offenses were sufficient to keep him in prison, in response to the founder of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) saying that the state’s desperate attempt to change the constitution was simply meant to keep him detained.
“Constitutional amendments won’t be necessary given the PTI founder’s long list of crimes,” Asif claimed in an interview with the News.
“The incarcerated former premier wants to attach himself not just to constitutional amendments but to everything [that’s happening] in Pakistan as he considers himself the centre of everything.”
A day prior, Khan asserted that the constitutional amendment package put up by the ruling coalition was intended to keep him incarcerated longer and characterized the modifications as catastrophic for the nation and the legal system.
