Message from Former Prime Minister, Imran Khan
(November 15, 2024)
After keeping me and my wife in jail for a year, the Prosecutor General has admitted in the High Court that there was a mistrial in the ToshaKhana (Gift Repository) case, and that the requirements of justice were not observed. This is an admission of political vengeance by the Mafia who are holding the state hostage and using NAB for victimisation. It is a big question mark on our judicial system. Following this admission, I demand the resignations of the Chairman NAB, the Prosecutor General, and the investigation officers, and the relevant judges. Disciplinary action must be taken against them for the mistrial of the country's most popular leader at the behest of the occupying mafia.
I was sentenced in five frivolous cases in an equally ridiculous manner and two more bogus trials are speedily being conducted so that I can be detracted from the movement for genuine sovereignty, democracy, and rule of law. But I will continue the fight for the genuine freedom of Pakistanis until the very last drop of my blood!
Following the passing of the 26th Constitutional Amendment, the High Court and the Supreme Court have become no more than kangaroo courts, and their status now is similar to any government department. By curbing the power of the judiciary, the country’s already corrupt judicial system will come to a complete stand still. It is said that democracy is in danger. But is there any democracy left in the country? Democracy means liberty, rule of law, and the free provision of justice. Democracy in the country has been annihilated. The country has been turned into a Banana Republic!
This is why I am calling upon the Pakistani nation, that this is the time, to not only come out on November 24, but for every individual to take on the responsibility to launch a movement for mass mobilization. Through this movement will the dream of genuine freedom, democracy, and rule of law be realized. Otherwise, life-long slavery will remain the nation’s destiny.
If not now, then when? If not you, then who?
