ISLAMABAD: Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah on Friday called on Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) associations and parliamentarians to come out to express solidarity with the members of Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) who disqualified former premier Imran Khan in the Toshakhana case.

Addressing a press conference in Islamabad, Sanaullah said the ECP members have done a favour by “throwing Khan out of national politics.”

“He [Imran Khan] who used to call all his political opponents ‘thieves’ has been declared a ‘certified thief’ himself. He is such a petty thief that he sells out state gifts,” the minister said.

Sanaullah said that he was disappointed by the number of people who came out to protest against Imran Khan’s disqualification, saying his self-proclaimed popularity among the masses was badly exposed.

“I have reports from Intelligence Bureau (IB), and other intelligence agencies, and there are not more than 40-50 people at any spot anywhere in the country.”

The minister urged Punjab Chief Secretary, IGP, and the provincial police to obey the state instead of listening to the orders given by the PTI chief.
