Coming week most important in Pakistan's history, says Imran

KAHUTA: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan on Friday claimed that the coming week will be the most important in Pakistan’s history.

Imran, addressing a rally in Kahuta, said the coming week will decide whether Pakistan remains a “country of dacoits or change into Naya Pakistan”.

Imran further said that when an elected prime minister lies, the country is effected negatively as institutions start to decay. 

“Today the country is in debt, there is no respect for the green passport and unemployment is at an all time high. Meanwhile, a small group of people are getting rich while the rest of nation is regressing,” said Imran.

He added that the Sharif family has not been held accountable for the last three decades as they have always used money to buy justice and destroy state institutions. 

Imran, once again referring to the Sharif family as a mafia, said he would have drowned with shame if he was in Nawaz’s place.

Earlier, the PTI chairman had called on the Nawaz Sharif to immediately resign as the prime minister in light of the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) report.

Imran had said that the report’s findings have vindicated him and finally the opposition's hard work had paid off.

The JIT in its report observed major disparities in the finances of the Sharif family and their known and declared sources of income and recommended action under NAB Ordinance 1999.

The JIT recommended that a reference be filed against Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, daughter Maryam Nawaz, sons Hussain and Hasan Nawaz with NAB.
