ISLAMABAD: A Joint Investigation Team (JIT) formed to probe terrorism charges against Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan and Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) chief Dr Tahirul Qadri started its work on Monday.
The team which is being headed by SP Saddar Captain (retd) Elias Ahmed includes SP City Mustansar Feroze, an SDPO Secretariat and an SHO Secretariat as well as representatives from the Inter-Services Intelligence and the Intelligence Bureau.
The team started its work today after a notification was issued in this respect.

Imran and Qadri were booked under the anti-terrorist act on September 1, days after protesters in Islamabad attempted to attack the Parliament and entered its precincts. The First Information Report against the PTI chairman and the PAT chief was registered on behalf of the government.
Both Imran and Qadri have been holding protest sit-ins in the capital since August 14 with their parties demanding the prime minister’s resignation and a re-election in the country.

Allah will InshAllah protect Imran Khan because he is on the right side with the right intentions. Allah will InshAllah not only expose but also humiliate those who have looted our country and have become billionaires by plundering our hard-earned money. Allah will do justice AMEEN!!.

If anything bad happens to Imran Khan then the entire educated class of Pakistan along with the overseas Pakistanis and all the Pakistanis who support Imran Khan would go on a strike and that would be the last thing MIan Sahab would want. Supporters of Imran Khan are passionate about Imran Khan and Pakistan and they would not let anything bad happen to Imran Khan or Pakistan.

@Atif Khan no sir almost half and half. One half military and one half PPP + NS. ( 30 some years. )
I think it's enough time for goverents to prove their competency or incompetencys. Musharrafs few years -- speaks in itself , what a government can achieve -- that is , if they are willing. And why PPP + sharif family failed -- I think enough said about that. It doesn't need any more proofs.

Now the cat is already out of the bag that Molvi Qadri who has taken law in his own hands and he has done so on the behest of some foreign countries( including Israil and India).Even a common person having average intelligence can understand that from where Qadri has brought millions of dollars while just in the year 1989 Qadri was an employee of Ittefaq Group where he was drawing a meager salary of RS 4000 per month.Today Qadri is spending Lakhs of Ruppees per day to give salary and food to those 3000 or so poor persons .Reportedly Qari is paying Rs 400 to each such person per day.
Some of the employees of Qadri are spreading propaganda on some T.V. Chennels that Qadri is even bigger Scholar than Allama Iqbal but this is just a white lie.Qadri is just an ordinary man

You said "IK is a joke in the USA."
Well, then, you don't have any idea.
Isn't he getting any funds for his party and charity work from overseas Pakistanis? Where does he hold his fund raisers?
Majority of overseas Pakistanis believes in him and trust him more than any other politician.

@Raheel
Change has to be through election, the way Obama came to power through votes. IK and Qadri believe that they can bring the change using force or backdoors. That will hardly be change. In my opinion, both of them are corrupt to the core.
If you don't want your country become Iraq or Libya, then change has to be through elections and votes and through parliament.
Running a country is a very complex project unlike running a charity business. IK and Qadri are driving the wrong way, where there will a violent accident sooner or later.

In your opinion they are corrupt. ??
People call them many things. No one ever claimed that they are corrupt. So far both of them have only given to Pakistan.
Obama won through fair election. Please don't even try to compare electoral process in USA with Pakistan. If any one questions , they open up and examine every vote. Vote by vote. Remember Florida and Bush ? They don't indefinitely close the constituency and claim nothing happened , just believe us.
Sir even the Mighty Bhutto had to bow infront of people. He is only NS.

@Jawad : Any lawless act to counter a lawless act has great danger. The same tools will be used over and over in future years and Pakistan will never be in peace. If the judicial system or Military can not solve the problems by removing any unpopular government then there is no alternative but to wait for next election and if the majority picks again the wrong people, you have no choice but to live with it.
