Aleema Khan warns: Peaceful protests must continue to prevent Imran Khan’s imprisonment in military jail

Aleema Khan, the sister of PTI founder Imran Khan, stated that if Imran Khan is to be released from jail, peaceful protests must continue; otherwise, they could imprison him in a military jail.

Speaking to reporters outside Adiala Jail, she said that Judge Shah Rukh Arjmand had rejected the bail applications of the PTI founder and Bushra Bibi.

This same judge had dragged out the case for three months and is now prolonging this case as well.

She emphasized that if we want to bring Imran Khan out of jail and end this fascism, we must continue peaceful protests. If we do not protest peacefully, they may choose to imprison Imran Khan in a military jail instead of allowing him to come out.

She noted that the people of Rawalpindi had come out for peaceful protests for their freedom and the independence of the judiciary, and they joined them in solidarity.

They can testify that there was no police presence; instead, there was a special unit dressed in black, firing rubber bullets directly at people.

A large convoy led by Ali Amin had reached Burhan, where they were shot at. The government is fearful because people are demanding their right to vote.

Aliema Khan stated that the founder of PTI has said that protests should never be stopped and that the protest from two days ago should not have been called off; no one should call off anything.

She declared that the protests will not stop now; they will continue until Imran Khan and the other prisoners are freed and an independent judiciary is established.

She stated that there are protests planned in Bahawalpur, Mianwali, and Faisalabad on Wednesday, emphasizing that this is the constitutional right of the people, which no one can take away or prevent.

A protest is also scheduled at Minar-e-Pakistan in Lahore on October 5 for the PTI founder’s birthday, and the final date for the Karachi protest is yet to be determined.

The Islamabad protest will be the final round, and its date will be announced soon.

She asserted that no matter how much tear gas and rubber bullets are used against them, they will come out and exercise their constitutional rights.
