General Bajwa did to Pakistan no enemy could, says Imran Khan

TIL Desk/World/Islamabad/ Lamenting once again fettered rule and control during his time in the Prime Minister’s Office, Imran Khan said that General (retd) Qamar Javed Bajwa “did to Pakistan what no enemy could do to the country”, adding that the former army chief gave NRO II to the then opposition.

“Gen (retd) Bajwa asked me to grant NRO II to the then opposition when the government had to pass laws related to the Financial Action Task Force. It was Gen (retd) Bajwa who gave NRO II to the then opposition,” the PTI chief said in his address to the nation via video link.

Khan said the way his party was treated in the past seven months was “unprecedented”, “(Our allies) were receiving calls from unknown numbers and were asked to stop supporting Imran Khan,” he said.

“What happened with Arshad Sharif, Azam Swati, Shahbaz Gul and Jameel Farooqui happened only because they were giving statements in our favour,” he added. The PTI chairman said he did not witness the kind of violation of human rights during the rule of former dictator General (Pervez) Musharraf that happened this time.
