ISLAMABAD: Minister for Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage (IB&NH) Senator Pervaiz Rashid said on Friday that it was the job of the police to implement the arrest warrants issued by an anti-terror court for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Imran Khan.
Talking to the media here at Parliament House, he hoped that the PTI chief would appear before the court given how he preached about the rule of law.
Rashid added that Imran had instigated the people through his speeches to attack PTV and other government institutions.
The information minister said that if Imran realised his mistakes, he would be welcomed back into the parliament. He added that the PTI chief had forgotten that he tried to fool the masses using hollow slogans, CDs which were available and could be presented to him if he so desired.

@darvesh: The election rigger will continue to rule the country like Pakistan. We deserve it.
It is also the prime duty of Police to arrest persons nominated in murder cases against Sharif brothers,you and other Ministers.
@Blithe: YES IN A NORMAL COURT OF LAW OK,BUT NOT IN AN ANTI-TERROR COURT, THIS IS WHERE THE LIKES OF THE PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WAGAH INCIDENT AND THE LAHORE MODEL TOWN MASSACRE OUGHT TO BE PRESENTED
When is SS going before the courts?
Whether they want or not their next destination is jail and ultimately a miserable life for sure.
@Blithe: "IK has to present himself before the court..."
Just like your respected Chief Minister presented himself before the court in the Model Town killings right?
The sooner you accept the fact that in Pakistan the law of the jungle is in effect, the better for you.
@Frank: Stop obfuscating the issue . IK has to present himself before the court, he has to surrender himself before the court, and try to clear his name legally. Being a street thug and using thuggery cannot be excused. Also he is clearly inciting violence – he and his friend Sheda Butt .
I have a CD of Nawaz Sharif's PML thugs attacking and trashing the Supreme Court when Chief Justice Sajjad Ali Shah was hearing cases against him. I can present it to you if you so desire.
