Faisal Vawda Claims PTI Keeping Imran Khan Inside Under a Deal

Former Federal Minister Senator Faisal Vawda has claimed that PTI leaders have deliberately kept Imran Khan inside under an agreement.

While addressing a press conference at Karachi Customs House, Vawda made startling revelations regarding PTI’s internal politics, economic losses, and corruption in customs revenue.

Allegations Against PTI

Faisal Vawda claimed that:
🗣“The PTI itself does not want its founder to come out. The party is acting as a guarantor for the PML-N.”
🗣“I had warned earlier that the ‘Trump Card’ would not work, and now my words are proving true.”

Economic & Security Concerns

🔹 The Pakistan Customs Agents Association informed that they contribute Rs 400 billion to the national treasury.
🔹 Vawda expressed concern over financial mismanagement, stating:
“I have caught a theft of Rs 50-60 billion, and action is being taken.”
🔹 He criticized the government for revenue losses and stressed the need for business-friendly policies.

Army Deployment in Sindh & Punjab

Faisal Vawda also commented on the deployment of the army in troubled areas of Sindh and Punjab, stating:
🗣“When the army is called for everything, then appreciate its role. The Army Chief is acting as a team leader and has already issued necessary directives.”

Customs Protest Withdrawn

On a related note, Chairman All Pakistan Customs Agents Association Saifullah Khan announced the withdrawal of the customs protest following negotiations.
