Imran Khan Likely To Be Arrested In Foreign Funding Case: Report

Imran Khan Likely To Be Arrested In Foreign Funding Case: Report. Imran Khan, chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and a former prime minister of Pakistan, is likely to be detained in connection with a case involving foreign money, according to sources cited by ARY on Friday.

The report comes shortly after the same-day arrests of fellow PTI leaders Tariq Shafi, Hamid Zaman, and Saif Niazi.

According to the media, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah directed the appropriate authorities to file a complaint against Imran Khan.

The federal government has developed a plan under which the police have been authorized to place Imran Khan under house arrest at his Banigala property after the announcement of the much-anticipated long march, according to an earlier story in the Dawn newspaper, which cited sources.

Notably, PTI leader Saifullah Niazi was also taken into custody by the Federal Investigation Agency’s (FIA) Cybercrime wing on Friday, on charges of running an ‘unauthorized’ website, which was being used for illegal fundraising, ARY news reported.

“After Shehbaz Sharif’s press conference yesterday and the subsequent arrests of Tariq Shafi, Hamid Zaman and Saif Niazi, it is clear that the government is panicking and is scared after the announcement of ‘Azadi March’,” PTI leader Chaudhry Fawad Hussain tweeted.

Addressing a press conference in Islamabad on Friday, Rana Sanaullah gave reasons for the detention and noted that the PTI leaders were not appearing before the FIA in the party’s prohibited funding case.

After the announcement, the Shehbaz Sharif-led federal government had decided to call out army and deploy troops in the capital city if PTI chief Imran Khan gave a call for the march.

The ousted Prime minister claimed that there is only one way for Pakistan to come out of the prevailing situation and that is to ensure fresh general elections in the country.

While addressing a mega rally last month in Punjab’s Rahimyar Khan district, Khan said he would give the final call for anti-government protests when the time was ripe, asserting that it would come when he is assured that he can “take three wickets in one ball”.
