Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi has warned that launching any military or security operation in the province would amount to “open bullying.”
While speaking to the media at the Karachi Press Club, Afridi said authorities were not even allowing the sisters of PTI founder Imran Khan to meet him, adding that they were treating him like a terrorist. He alleged that the authorities removed the PTI founder’s government illegally under what he described as the “London Plan.” Afridi stressed that the issue was not limited to PTI alone but had become a collective struggle, claiming that journalists who stood for truth and justice were also facing pressure.
The chief minister said the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa had given PTI a mandate for the third time because they were satisfied with the party’s performance. He questioned why a chief minister could not carry out political activities outside his own province and said the provincial assembly had convened an all-parties peace jirga.
