  • Rana Sanaullah warns Imran Khan. 
  • Says he will be hung upside down. 
  • Cannot ensure safety if angry mob attacks capital, says minister. 


The government will hang Chairman PTI Imran Khan upside down if he takes his long march into Islamabad, warned Federal Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah Khan on Thursday.

"Imran Khan doesn't know what the government is planning to do with him this time around," he said, speaking on Geo News programme Capital Talk.

The federal minister stressed that the government cannot guarantee the safety of anyone's life in the face of a charged mob. "How will the government be able to guarantee the safety of anyone's life when an armed and charged mob attacks the federal capital?" he questioned.

He warned that someone from the crowd could do anything, triggering a response from the police.

The minister said that the government has not revealed the strategy to cope with PTI's long march.

Responding to a question regarding the audio leaks, he said that no government agency is involved in the issue. It is an individual who made the recordings by hacking the phone or placing something on the table.

The arrest warrant is effective till October 19.

Cheema directed the IGP to provide assistance to the ACE Punjab for the arrest of Rana Sanaullah in a land acquisition case. 

He directed Rana's arrest to be carried out in accordance with the law.
