Imran Khan Denies Saudi Role in Alleged Regime Change Operation
Former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan asserted on Thursday that Saudi Arabia played no role in the alleged “regime change operation.”
This statement follows recent remarks made by PTI party leader Sher Afzal Marwat during a TV interview, suggesting Saudi involvement alongside the United States in the downfall of Khan’s government.
However, PTI’s central leadership and spokesperson swiftly distanced themselves from Marwat’s views, emphasizing they do not align with the party’s stance.
Imran Khan’s clarification on the matter was conveyed by PTI leaders after a meeting with him at Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail.
Furthermore, Sahibzada Hamid Raza, Chairman of the PTI-backed Sunni Ittehad Council, disclosed that political consultations were held at the jail with Khan.
He announced the nomination of PTI leader Shibli Faraz for the position of Leader of the Opposition in the Senate, with papers set to be submitted promptly.
Moreover, a meeting of the six-party opposition alliance is scheduled for April 29 to discuss rallies in Punjab.
Raoof Hasan, a PTI leader, expressed confidence, stating their victory and the imminent release of Imran Khan, who he believes will soon reassume the role of prime minister.
