CJP, we want justice: Imran

Published November 1, 2022

PTI chairman Imran Khan on Tuesday demanded justice from the Chief Justice of Pakistan for the torture inflicted on PTI leaders Shahbaz Gill and Azam Swati.

“We will never forget it. The nation will never forget,” he said in an address to supporters in Gujranwala.

“And what they did with Arshad Sharif […] he told me who was threatening him. Chief justice sahab you should take interest in this yourself. Arshad Sharif is first sent outside and then he is killed.

“I am asking you today. If you [CJP] and the judiciary don’t stand for us, then who will,” Imran asked.
