The Pakistan government has been arged to register a sedition case against Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf chief Imran Khan and Pakistan Awami Tehreek leader Tahirul Qadri for violating constitution.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman, chief of Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl, made the call.
During a meeting of JUI-F workers in Khyber Bazaar here on Sunday, he alleged that Tahirul Qadri and Imran Khan were foreign agents, who wanted to unsettle the country to appease their ‘masters’, reported DAWN.
He said that the two parties paralysed the entire system by staging sit-in in Islamabad to gain powers through backdoor. He said that all the main stream political parties were united to foil such attempts.
Rehman urged the government to register a sedition case against Imran and Qadri for violating constitution. He said that PTI chief failed to get resignation from his own party members but he was demanding resignation from the prime minister.
“Qadri is claiming to bring revolution in the country but no good can be expected from him as he himself has admitted allowing Christians into his mosques and seminaries,” the JUI-F chief said, adding that the followers of Pope could not serve the purpose of Islam.
“We will take all possible steps for protection of constitution, assemblies and the government. We will prove our strength whenever needed,” Mr Rehman said. He added that both the parties should wind up the protest as workers had already returned homes.
He said that the workers of PTI and PAT had enough of the prolonged and illogical sit-ins and they were no longer interested to damage the country’s economy. He said that leaders of the two parities had repeatedly violated agreements with the government’s negotiating teams and created uncertainty.
The JUI-F chief said that raising slogans against rigging was aimed at hollowing basis of the country and destabilising the system. The nation knew what the protestors had planned for appeasing their foreign masters, he added.
