Aleema Khan: Imran Khan Will Walk Free When He Wills

Aleema Khan, the sister of PTI founder Imran Khan, expressed confidence on Friday that her brother would be released from prison at the right moment, stating, "When he wants to come out, God willing, the prison door will open at dawn."

Speaking to the media outside Adiala Jail, Aleema Khan criticized the government for delaying negotiations and obstructing meetings with the PTI negotiation committee. She claimed that jail authorities had prohibited the committee from meeting Imran Khan earlier in the day, leading to confusion about the status of the talks.

Confidence in Justice

Aleema Khan also took aim at the ongoing Al-Qadir Trust case, dismissing it as a "big joke" and expressing hope that once the matter reaches the High Court, the flaws in the case will become evident to the world.

"The allegations in the Al-Qadir case lack substance, and the truth will prevail," she said, adding that Bushra Bibi, Imran Khan's wife, had already decided not to attend future hearings due to the absurdity of the proceedings.

Unity in the PTI

Reaffirming party unity, Aleema Khan stated, "The founder of PTI has appointed Salman Akram Raja, and the party stands firmly behind him. We are not under anyone’s control." Her comments come amid internal criticism and recent public disagreements between PTI leaders, signaling an effort to restore cohesion within the party ranks.

Political Climate and Negotiations

Aleema Khan also alluded to ongoing political negotiations, accusing government representatives of using Imran Khan’s tweets as an excuse to stall progress. "They said the founder of PTI has tweeted, so perhaps that is why talks should stop," she remarked, emphasizing the importance of moving forward with discussions for the country’s stability.

Background

Imran Khan has been incarcerated since his arrest in connection with the Al-Qadir Trust case, a high-profile corruption case that has drawn international attention. Despite his detention, the PTI leader continues to wield significant influence, with his supporters and party members rallying for his release and a return to political engagement.

Conclusion

Aleema Khan’s remarks highlight the resilience of Imran Khan’s supporters and their unwavering faith in his leadership. As the legal and political battles continue, the PTI’s stance remains firm: justice for their leader and the party’s enduring commitment to its vision for Pakistan.
