LAHORE, Aug 15: Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaaf chairman Imran Khan has said his party is with the Supreme Court as it will not allow the ruling party to attack the freedom of judiciary.

Talking to reporters here on Wednesday, he asked the chief justice as to why he did not notice ‘PPP’s every day attack on judiciary’.

He said there should be  democracy in the country that could force the president to bring back the looted money of the people from the Swiss bank.

Mr Khan said the PTI had nothing to do with the Charter of Democracy as it was an agreement between the two parties.

He asked as to why the government was silent on taking up cases against Nawaz Sharif.

He said all political parties should be involved in the process for the caretaker set up. He said that political parties made a deal on 20th Constitutional amendment.

Mr Khan said the PTI would announce its economic roadmap on Aug 24. About leading a rally to Waziristan in September, he said he was not afraid of any threats.

“I will lead the peaceful rally to Waziristan come what may. The international and national media and human rights organisations will accompany him.”
