Mr Sanaullah said Imran Khan did not condemn the attack that took place on May 9 and May 10 and he was awarded blanket relief suggesting that the PTI chief should form its ‘proscribed party’.
He said Imran khan utilized the corrupt money and method to develop a so-called trust by looting the nation’s Rs60 billion mentioning only Imran Khan and his wife’s names were included in the trust.

“The targets had been advised in advance in case Imran Khan got arrested,” he said, adding that all those responsible would be brought within the law’s grasp.
Every time the PTI takes the streets, the same 100-200 people are found to be involved in violent activities. This means that they have been trained to do this. Imran has trained them and they are his investment,” the minister said.
“These are terrorists … they were trained for eight months and they were told to go and set fire to specified locations,” the interior minister claimed, adding that the government had concrete proof that would be presented in a court of law.
He mentioned that the only solution to the PTI was banning it as a political identity but added that this would be a big decision.
Rana Sanaullah said that the chief justice has ‘weakened’ his moral authority by ruling Imran Khan’s arrest illegal. He also mentioned that the acquittal was part of the same chain as the ‘minority opinion’ of three judges being imposed as the court’s decision in the election delay case.
On Saturday, Maulana had announced a sit-in in front of the Supreme Court saying he wanted to remind the court that it was ‘mother of law’ not ‘mother-in-law’.
