Imran Khan answerable to law in all the cases: Javed Latif

ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister Mian Javed Latif has said that Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf Imran Khan will be held accountable in all matters, including “Toshakhana” and “Foreign Funding,” as he is required to uphold the law of the land.

Speaking to the media, he asserted that the PML-N always acted in accordance with the law and the constitution when it came to political expression in regard to state issues. All of the PML-N, including Nawaz Sharif, Maryam Nawaz, and former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, had been imprisoned on spurious charges and remained in their cells while refusing to oppose the government agencies. He asserted that “Imran Khan is inciting workers to violence and wants to bring the nation to civil war.”

Bashing PTI chief’s politics, the minister said that in order to avoid indictment, Imran Khan adopted criminal and undemocratic behaviour. In response to a question regarding elections, he said that elections would be held on time but the Constitution also mandates that uncontested and transparent elections be ensured.
