PTI chairman Imran Khan’s sister Aleema Khan talking to the media outside Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi said High Court judge has said that under the provisions imposed on the former prime minister, death penalty can also be granted.
Aleema Khan announced that if justice would not be provided, then she will go to United States and file a case against former US diplomat Donald Lu—who was blamed by Imran Khan for orchestrating the no-confidence vote that led to his ouster in April 2022. Donald Lu talks with the Pakistani diplomat was conveyed in diplomatic cipher sent to Islamabad that caused uproar in Pakistan.
The US has categorically rejected the claims and allegations by the PTI chairman against Donald Lu. Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Elizabeth Horst said US has rejected the claims publically and privately.
Aleema Khan alleged said that the American Embassy was fully involved in the Cipher case.
“If someone is trying to repeat the Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto affair, then listen time has changed now,” she said.
She expressed his satisfaction on the state of health of Imran in jail. She questioned what crime the former prime minister committed that such provisions are being imposed on him.
