Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Salman Akram Raja on Thursday questioned whether the country would operate based on kidnappings and terrorism cases.
Speaking to the media, Raja stated, “We stand for our rights; we will leave only after claiming these rights.”
“The court is being mocked. We will file more contempt of court petitions tomorrow.”
He added, “Court orders are being ignored, and this must be stopped. The people should raise their voices against this oppression and fascism.”
Raja explained, “This matter is not just about the founder; it’s about the survival of the law.”
“We strongly condemn what happened today. We are being challenged, and we will not remain silent,” Raja said.
Taking a jab at the current government, Raja said, “They cannot break us in any way.”
“The people will be with us, and we will continue our struggle. The country needs stability; do not lead it towards chaos,” he continued.
“To what extent will the PTI founder’s voice be silenced? The people have made their decision,” he stated.
Raja claimed, “He was kept in detention for seven hours without any reason. This is state terrorism, and leaflets are being drawn against him.”
“Many of them will be humiliated for a month. What was the crime that a case was registered against them?” Raja questioned.
“Will the country run on the basis of kidnappings and terrorism charges?” he asked.
Raja added, “Arrest is a trivial matter for us, and we are ready.”
“We will end oppression and fascism, even if it costs us,” he declared.
Raja concluded, “The rulers should come to their senses. We do not want a riot; the state wants a riot. We do not want to go to jail with a colonel’s permission; it is our right.”
