Whoever tries to get the 2018 elections postponed will face the wrath of our former PM Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, who warns delay seekers that they could even face high treason charges.

This country may not have been able to press high treason charges on a certain someone who violated the Constitution but folks who ask for polls to be delayed for a bit should be tried under the dreaded Article 6 — that's Abbasi logic.

For more enlightening remarks by the ex-premier, come this way.

A quick Twitter search tells us this is not the first time PM Abbasi has said such a thing.
