Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) spokesperson Aslam Ghauri has said that the PTI should be banned, terming it to be a “terrorist organisation” instead of a political party.

A tweet from the party’s official Twitter account quoted Ghauri as saying that PTI chief Imran Khan and his party were a “threat to national integrity” as it was allegedly leading astray the country’s youth.

“After staging a drama of ‘Absolutely Not’, [Imran] Niazi is now asking for help from his American lords, the audio of which has come in front of the nation.”
