Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) incarcerated founder Imran Khan announced to offer a conditional apology for the May 9 riots, provided that the CCTV footage of the events is made public.
Speaking to media representatives at Adiala Jail, Imran Khan said that the footage will help identify the culprits, who he said should be brought to justice.
“If the culprits are found to be affiliated with the PTI, I will not only expel them from the party but also apologise,” he added.
The PTI founder said that his party is the ‘victim’ of the May 9 incidents, questioning as to why the evidence is being hidden.
“Hiding evidence is a crime,” Imran Khan said.
The PTI founder said that he was ‘kidnapped’ on the pretext of an arrest, demanding that an apology should be sought from him over his ‘abduction’.
The PTI founder said that peaceful protest is their right while reiterating his demand that the CCTV footage be released to identify the true culprits.
