Fazl accuses institutions of delaying action against Imran

JUI-F president says PTI chief is being supported by global media after he condemned attack on Salman Rushdie

JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Wednesday accused the state institutions of delaying action against former prime minister Imran Khan over his "unlimited corruption, prohibited funding and rebellious disobedience".

In a video statement, he said that Imran Khan and his associates consider themselves beyond the Constitution and law, saying that the state institutions were under "tremendous international pressure".

ملعون سلمان رشدی پر حملے کی مذمت کے بعد صیہونی لابی اور عالمی میڈیا کھلم کھلا عمران نیازی کی پشت پناہی کر رہی ہے،
مغربی اشرافیہ کا پیغمبر اسلام صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے خلاف تعصب کا واضح ثبوت ہے ۔

"If the state institutions avoid taking legal action against the criminal who shook the foundations of the nation then JUI-F will not shy away from taking its own course for the protection of the country's ideological basis and the Constitution," he added.

He asked the United Nation why it has sympathies with the former premier. "During Imran Khan's tenure, actions such as retaliatory measures against former prime ministers and putting their families in jail were taken but never once it was pointed out that such actions were undemocratic," he added.

Fazl said that since the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) clearly brought forward the theft of Imran Khan, the “Israeli-funded channels” and United Nations became restless.

اقوام متحدہ سے پوچھتے ہیں کہ آپ کی ہمدردیاں کس بنیاد پر عمران نیازی کے ساتھ ہیں ؟
الیکشن کمیشن کی جانب سے واضح طور پر نیازی کے چوری کے اقدامات قوم کے سامنے لائے گئے تو اسرائیلی چینلز اور اقوام متحدہ اس پر تلملا رہے ہیں ۔

"We ask on what basis you are supporting a person who is an abrogator of the Constitution and attacks the ideological foundations of Pakistan," he added.

The JUI-F chief said that the UN had supported the atrocities committed against humanity at Guantanamo Bay, asking where the philosophy of protecting human rights had vanished then.

"Aafia Siddiqui is still in American prison... for what crime? Her mother passed away waiting for her daughter. You did not remember human rights at that time," he added.

گوانتاناموبے میں انسانیت پر ہونے والی درندگی کو اقوام متحدہ نے سپورٹ کیا تھا،ابو غریب جیل میں زندہ انسانوں پر کتوں کو چھوڑا گیا،اس وقت انسانی حقوق کے کیوں نظر نہیں آئے؟

Reasoning why the international media suddenly started supporting Imran, Fazl said that since Imran Khan condemned the attack on Salman Rushdie, an India-born blasphemous author, the global media started supporting the PTI chief openly.

"From the day Imran Khan condemned the attack on Rushdie, the Zionist lobby has started putting pressure on the Pakistani government through the UN and international media," he added.

ہم عالمی اداروں، اسرائیل اور صیہونی قوتوں پر واضح کردیا چاہتے ہیں کہ ان کی چال کامیاب ہونے نہیں دی جائے گی۔ عمران نیازی کو دوبارہ اقدار میں لانے کی ہر کوشش ناکام بنائی جائے گی،
ہم آئین کے مجرم کو سیاست سے باہر پھینک دیں گے ، ان شاءاللہ

Fazl said that the real aim is to give a "democratic cover" to Imran Khan's rebellious behaviour and bring him back to power through the rigging.

He further reiterated his claim that Imran Khan was being funded by both Israel and India..
