PDM condemns Imran's statement against COAS

The Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) on Saturday condemned PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s statement against the army chief, calling him a "terrorist disguised as a politician".

According to a statement from the PDM, the former prime minister was a “terrorist” in the guise of a politician and was attacking the chief of the army staff (COAS) for standing by the Constitution and for their “refusal to interfere in politics”.

“The person who launched a dirty campaign against the martyrs of Lasbela, is now running a campaign against the army and COAS,” the statement maintained.

It claimed that the “American Jewish lobby” was concerned about him, thus the PDM could understand Imran’s qualms against an army chief who was a Hafiz of the Holy Quran (memorized the scripture), and was an “honest and professional” COAS.

The statement continued that the “problem” was that the “facility to offer extensions” [to those in power] behind closed doors and “in the president’s house” was no longer available to the PTI chief. It added that Imran could be “a degenerate” as much as he wanted, but the “selection facility” was closed.
