In a fervent declaration outside Adiala Jail, PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan, alongside party leaders Sher Afzal Marwat and Faisal Javed, announced the organisation of what they termed as the "country's biggest rally" in Peshawar scheduled for Sunday.
The rally, slated to commence at 2pm, aims to advocate for the independence of the judiciary and the release of "prisoner number 804," referring to the PTI founder currently incarcerated in Adiala Jail.
The announcement comes in the wake of seismic developments within the judicial sphere, catalysed by a letter penned by six Islamabad High Court (IHC) judges to the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC). The missive unearthed allegations of undue interference by intelligence agencies in judicial affairs, a revelation that sent shockwaves across the legal and political landscape.
Barrister Gohar Ali Khan disclosed that he had engaged in a 45-minute dialogue with Imran Khan, marking their first interaction following the dissemination of the judges' letter. Expressing profound dismay over the contents of the letter, Gohar underscored Imran Khan's commitment to upholding the sanctity of the judiciary, asserting that the PTI founder remains deeply perturbed by attempts to manipulate judicial processes.

Addressing the media, Gohar elucidated Imran Khan's directive to PTI workers, encouraging them to utilise social media platforms to highlight instances of oppression, urging individuals to share their narratives through vlogs, thereby amplifying voices against injustice.
Furthermore, Gohar revealed Imran Khan's intent to dispatch a letter to the Chief Justice of Pakistan, outlining the intricacies of his legal proceedings amidst the ongoing judicial imbroglio. Emphasising PTI's unwavering allegiance to judicial independence, Gohar reiterated Imran Khan's resolve to stand as a steadfast advocate for justice.
Sher Afzal Marwat, echoing Gohar's sentiments, declared the forthcoming rally as a monumental event in the party's crusade for judicial autonomy. Marwat extended invitations to all political entities, inviting their participation in the rally as a unified demonstration of support for the cause.
In addition to the Peshawar rally, Marwat disclosed plans for a grand gathering at the Islamabad Parade Ground on April 6, following the conclusion of Teraweeh prayers.
Faisal Javed echoed the sentiment, expressing elation over the opportunity to convene with the PTI founder and stressing the paramount importance of mobilising public support for the release of "prisoner number 804" and the broader movement for judicial independence.
