PTI Vice Chairman Shah Mahmood Qureshi was arrested from Gilgit Baltistan House in Islamabad. In a video statement issued before his arrest of Vice Chairman PTI Shah Mehmood Qureshi, he said police reached to arrest him. “This is a real freedom movement,” he added. “Imran Khan tried to fulfill the responsibility and played the politics of honesty for 40 years,” Qureshi added.
Qureshi vowed that the struggle would continue till the release of Imran Khan. The PTI Vice Chairman said he has done nothing wrong and has no regrets. “I have not given any statement of provocation,” Shah Mahmood added. Without elaborating the context, he said a great sacrifice has to be made for a great cause.
The PTI has alleged and claimed that Gilgit-Baltistan Chief Minister Khalid Khurshid has been placed under house arrest in Islamabad.
In a tweet, the party said that the government had “lost their senses” because it was “intoxicated with power”. It regretted that “non-elected” CMs in the other provinces were issuing orders while one elected by the people had been placed under house arrest.
